Honda F22C engine reliability, problems and repair The F22 family also included another unique engine, which was named F22C1. We have devoted a separate article toit, since it is quite different from F22B or F22A. This naturally aspirated straight-4 engine was created in 2003specifically for Honda S2000 for the North American market. This engine was developed based on the 2.0-liter F20C. Let’s compare the F22C and F20C, and find out the main differences. Honda engineers installed a new 90.7 mm stroke crankshaft, 149.65 mm long rods and 29 mm high pistons into theF22C cylinder block. These pistons are slightly different from the F20C pistons and the compression ratio was reducedto 11.1. 224 mm high F22C block deck. All these modifications allowed to increase displacement to 2.2 liters. On top of the block, they installed a 16-valve DOHC head with the VTEC system. The F22C head is the same as theF20C head, but in F22C, new camshafts were used. Here are the F22C cam specs: duration 296/296 deg, lift12.37/12.06 mm. The F22C1 engine needs periodic valve adjustment after every 105,000 miles. Adjustment is recommended only if thevalves are noisy. Valve clearances are as follows (cold): intake valves 0.21-0.25 mm, exhaust valves 0.25-0.29 mm. Another F22C difference from the F20C is the use of a heavier flywheel that weighs 9.5 kg. These are the maindifferences between F22C and F20C, the remaining specs of the engines are the same. Data upgrades were made to increase the torque at low and medium rpm by reducing the max rpm to 8,200 rpm. Thismade the car a bit more comfortable for everyday use. In the end of 2005, JDM Honda S2000 with an F22C1 engine became available; after 3 years, Honda S2000 wasdiscontinued, and F22C was also discontinued. Honda S2000 2.2 engine problems and malfunctions This F22C engine was developed based on the 2.0-liter F20C, and they have similar problems. All that is written HERE,and is suitable for your F22C1, except for one thing. The Honda S2000 2.2 engines have no problems with crackedvalve retainers, they have solved this problem. Honda S2000 2.2 engine tuning Naturally aspirated Tuning of the F22C Engine is the same as for F20C, but you already have the stroker kit installed. The first step will bebuying an AEM cold air intake system, a 4-2-1 header, and a 3 inch exhaust system. Then you have to configure theECU and raise the max rev to 8,500 rpm. This can give you about 260 HP. One should remember that the stock F22C rods experience high loads compared to F20C rods, so the rpm above 8,500rpm is dangerous for the stock F22C engine. This motor can withstand short overloads above 8,500 rpm, but do notoverdo it To increase the redline to 9,000 rpm and get good reliability, you will have to buy aftermarket rods and pistons. You can get even more power by installing an AEM intake system, a TODA 70 mm throttle body, a 3-row performancealuminum radiator, an oil catch can, NGK 9 iridium spark plugs, a TODA lightweight flywheel, a TODA B2 cams,adjustable cam gears, TODA valve springs, a 4-2-1 header, and a 3 inch exhaust system. Building an N/A Honda S2000 300 WHP at the wheels is possible with these performance parts: 50mm ITB, highcompression pistons (CR about 14), aftermarket rods, a Walbro 255 lph fuel pump, AEM fuel rail, 550 cc fuel injectors,an AEM fuel regulator, and an AEM EMS ECU. but this is not enough, you will need cylinder head porting, and youshould buy bronze valve guides, Supertech valves (37 mm intake/31 mm exhaust), TODA valve springs and JUN valveretainers, Inline pro cams, a 4-1 header and a 3″ performance exhaust system. An engine with this mod is to be configured with the use of sports fuel. It will give you over 300 HP, but this is not thelimit. You can get even more power if you use custom cams and a 2.7-liter stroker kit. Turbo Building a turbo project based on F22C1 is a good idea, stock internals hold the boost well. You can buy a turbokitbased on a small turbocharger and easily get 300 WHP. It will be fast and comfortable for daily driving. To get 400 WHP,you will need a turbo kit based on the GT3076R with an intercooler, NGK 8 Iridium spark plugs, 750 cc fuel injectors, aWalbro 255 lph fuel pump, a 3″ aftermarket exhaust system, and an AEM EMS ECU. This turbocharger will easily giveyou 400+ WHP at 15 psi (1 bar) of boost pressure with the use of E85 fuel. This is not the limit, you can get 500 WHP ormore, but it will require a lot of mods for your cylinder head.
