If it’s the pressure, there are a lot of ways to make more power per PSI. I think tdi\_logik was saying 9psi because another local has a stock block H22, on 9psi and made 333whp. :lol ---

Stock h22 motor is good for whatever power you wanna make. The question is how long do you want it to last? At 9psi you will make around 300whp and the motor will last forever, run 20psi, race gas and it will make close to 500, and run for a couple weeks ---

Brian’s car makes 333whp on a stock H22 block, 9psi I believe. It’s a very streetable and reliable car. I have driven it a few times, fun little car. ---

Everyone loves to rag on it because he spent X dollars and it doesnt make 500,000whp @ 900 billion RPM. It’s still running like a top and probably will continue to do so for another 100,000 miles. ---
