i have a prelude with the f22 non vtech and am planning on dropping in a h22.
my question is i want to turbo it and consitantly run about 10psi i know i ll have to lower the compresion and install a block gaurd and upgrade the valetrain. will i be able to run with the stock crank and will the factory sleeves handle the boost. also will a garratte t28srbb turbo be able to give the boost i want with out a lot of boost lag, and will this set up allow me to hit 300 to 350 hp safely?

 

Just turbo the F22.

 

I'd go h23. instead of h22.

much better for boost.

 

The H22 is 10.0:1 compression so 10psi (no higher) on a T28 would be safe with a GOOD TUNE. You could do that on a stock block. And no you aren't going to get 300-350 whp. Not at 10psi. A garrett T3/T4 57 trim at 10psi should be able to get you close to 300whp w/ cams safely. But a T28 would probably only yield around 230-250 whp at 10psi. The 2.2 litre should spool a t3/t4 FAIRLY quick. But then again, it's not a B-Series.

 

your gonna want a much larger turbo than that t28

 

Stick with the F22 imo...

 

1st- boosting a h22 is not the safest thing to do since the pistons are very great.
2nd. dont use a block gaurd on anything.
an last boost the f22. youd be better off. Im boosting right now a h22, only 7psi an no prob yet. jst not the best thing right now. also the crank will hold 800whp. i dont think you be there with stock block.

 

F series is way better for boost - period. If you are going to boost a motor boost the F22, they are iron sleeved stock. And have lower compression. My friend has a eclipse turbo kit on his F22 running Chrome and 8psi and is making 250whp/250ft/lbs - but he has forged pistons and head studs.
