Anyone ever done an H22 swap into a CRX?

If you move the battery to the back it would technically be the equiv. of moving around 80 lbs to the back... you are taking off 40 lbs from the front and adding 40 lbs to the rear at the same time... if its true that the H22 only weighs 70 lbs more than a b16 for example, then that right there would more then solve the problem.. CF hood and a few other things and your even better..
you would have to resleeve the block, the stock h22 sleeves are not steel they are made of some kind of composite metal and cant handle boost. the rings will blow. i wouldnt even run 6 lbs on the stock block but if you get it resleeved it would be a beast. my old h22 92 civic hatch turbo did 300 hp on 4 lbs of boost but didnt last long so consider all the money youd have to dump in the motor before turbo, i went through 3 motors in 3 months on 4 lbs of boost
Well, I wouldnt do H22 Turbo for cost reasons.... Heres how I figure:
H22 $2200
B16A1 $1500+Turbo ~$2200
Also, I have another question:
If I get the WHOLE Engine Swap deal frmo Hmotorsonline, what other things will I need?
Heres what comes with it:
- Motor
- Cable Tranny (Y1, S1, J1)
- ECU (PR3, PW0)
- Axles with Half Shaft (Will this work with swap?)
- Shift Linkage(Will it work???)
- Stock Motor Mounts(I will probably sell these, and get Hasports)
- Alternator
- Starter
- Clutch
- Flywheel
- Intake Manifold
- Exhaust Manifold
- Fuel Rail
- Injectors
- Distributor
- Engine Harness
- Comes With All Sensors Needed
- LSD Tranny (Optional +$300)
I appreciate all the help guys...

dont worry, the next time someone else asks the same question (which was just asked like 3 weeks ago) the same stupid replies will come about....that the car wont be able to turn well, horrible understeer etc....everyone reading this....fucking search before asking this question again....and then people replying the same stupid ass replies need to search as well

Im sure u know this from first hand experience right?
actually h22's on stock blocks have been known to handle up to 12 psi with good tuning on a standalone
ps....if you blew your h22 on 4 psi...you were doing something horribly wrong.....maybe u didnt upgrade your fuel? i dunno maybe u blew it because u really thought you were making 300 hp out of 4 psi on a 200 hp motor
We jsut worked out some issues in my friend's H22 Lude, honestly good luck trying to turn with that big motor. A H22 CRX sounds like a scary ass trailer-car, you could pull some good times at the track.
