Back when i was driving a 95 i was debating the same two engines. In the end i would have went for the h22a since finding parts for a f20 would probably end up being up a bitch and there are sooo many for the lude swap

does the f20b offer more hp or both f20b and h22a are the same and are they both direct swaps into the accord?

h22 has more power

However, since you do not have vtec, you more than lkely have the same motor as me, the f22b2. It has iron sleeves unlike the h22 so it can easily handle 6-8 psi of boost.

If your going to swap a motor, go with a k series. It is the new H swap.

I think low 13s is going to cost you quite a bit of money.

The cheapest route would to just get a $1,000 turbo and call it a day assuming you have the f22b2 which I am almost positive you have if you live in the USA. But a tune would drastically help.

In either case the auto trans will die in no time at all. With the turbo option it would be a more simple install but you DEFINITELY will need the biggest transmission cooler that will fit to prolong the life of the tranny.
