ek coupe h22 swap

[killercannible]

Alright, i heard that you can make your own custom axels by mating prelude and integra axels together. Any one know how. I know i have to take off the cv boots and the u joint but which end goes where. Also i'm not sure what ecu to use, i would use a chipped p28 or p72 but redline on an h22 is only like 7200 rpm and vtec for those ecu's will be set too high for a good vtec pull. Mabey i should run a p72 and an v-afc. Just want to know what everyone thinks. Also, motor mounts, are hasport the most reliable and therfore the best choice? Because i know they are the best but they are also the most expensive. Avid mounts look good too but i want the best fit and cleanest fit.

Redline on an H22 is 8,000...power curve ends at 7,200

If you want to do something other than just a H22 in your EK, like boosting it, then go with the P72. If you are going to leave it stock, go with the P13.

I dont really know Civics too well, but doesnt EK mean OBD2...so you will need to make sure that any ecu you get is OBD2 or you will need a conversion harness.

Correct me if im wrong on the civic thing. The only civic ive ever like is the 92-95 hatch (EG if im not mistaken)

A prelude ecu is out of the question because it requires tons of unnecasary wiring and a few extra components to keep it from throwing an error code.

I'm in the process of swapping an h22 into my ek also. I've done quite a bit of research and questioning, and I've concured that I'm going to boost, so a p72 is for me, and as for the axles, I'm going to just buy the Hasport conversion axles.
