I didnt think F series throttle bodies were interchangeable with d/h/b. and skunk2 doesnt make them for the F.

I have a 68mm on my h22, but it hurts mid range power, but really opens up in the top end.

I wouldnt get one for a stock f22 though

Damn near everything is interchangeable between F and H blocks/trans

throttle body really isnt worth it unless you have a highly modified engine, forced induction. and you dont really see the gains till its dyno tuned.

as for acceleration.

intake exhaust header that whole deal. and depending on what year/model accord you have you could swap in a prelude tranny with or without a lsd for shorter gear ratios which equal faster acceleration
