12:1 or higher compression
Cam
Tuning
Good header, 2.5" exhaust

Should get you there. A guy on honda-tech push RSX pistons in his F23 and it came out to around 11.7:1 compression and like 170+ hp. Not sure if thats before or after tuning though.

 

You can get 50 hp w/o turbo easy.

One word. Two syllables.

Super-Charge.

 

still forced induction only far more expensive then a turbo



i think the most you can get out of an f23/22 is just under 200chp with a lot of work, the only other option is a 2400lb prelude with a f23block and h22 head and a ton of tuning and you can get just under 200whp

 

turbocharged and supercharged are both forms of forced induction. and the price is about the same, says my boy who just supercharged his h22 5th gen.

 

must of had a great deal then, i havent seen a supercharger go less then 3k by itself considering you can turbo a car for half that

 

High Compression Pistons
Bigger Throttle Body... 70mm
Intake Manifold
Skunk 2 Stage 3 Cams with proper valvetrain
AEM Cam Gear
AEM Fuel Rail and Pressure Regulator
Bore
Headers and Exhaust
Intake
Pulleys


That would be good enough.

I made it on a f22a4

 

I'd like to know where you got Skunk2 cams for your F22 since they dont' make any for that motor.

 

if you call the skunk company you can have them custom made for a f22a1,4,and 6 for a decent amount.... stage 1 and 2 run the same amount stage 3 will run around 985.00

 

^ Damn.

 

Or, you can wait till I'm done with my F23A4 build too... est. 1 more month. Custom Regrind from WebCam, Head Work ( for flow and higher compression), stock bottom end, AEM Intake, Fuel and Cam Gear, Underdrive Crank Pulley, Headers, Exhaust and possibly a Skunk2 Throttle Body all tuned by P28 Hondata, similar to what "mck52689" did, nice job by the way! Hopefully the H series manual trans. & racing clutch help the numbers at the wheel too. I'll enjoy this while I rebuild the original F23A1 with a turbo, it should be decent but I agree, 200HP is pushing it without nitrous or turbo kit.
