DOHCEJ22E1 Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 As some of you already know, I have put together a DOHC EJ22 & it is running quite nicely. In fact, it's running so nicely that I plan to build another in the near future after I eventually turbo the one I have. I'm not looking for omnipresent power with the new engine, just for a better N/A EJ22. Keeping that in mind, I have come up with this formula: 97-99 25D heads. EG33 pistons (4) or 222 pistons. 257 piston rods. 222 shortblock. .050 MLS Phase 2 head gaskets. Phenolic intake manifold spacers. UEL headers or EL headers if I really want that extra 10bhp. 2.25 inch exhaust piping from the catalytic converters back. I know I could grab a 25D & have more displacement & power but how close can I get to the 2.5 in power w/the EJ22 is a question I'd like to answer. Does anyone even think I'd touch 160bhp, especially since the JDM 20D puts out 150bhp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
