You would deffo be best to get it tuned on something like the Hondata S300. It will allow you to sidestep quite a few potential issues.
Nafeman and STKPrelude both have H22a7's in their 5th gens.
What engine is/was in your 5th gen?

Is this to stay turbo charged?
If so, I'm not sure how much point there is in swapping in an a7 - it's a high compression engine so you'll need to swap the pistons for low compression ones, by which point... Might as well have stuck an a2 in! (with a pde head if you want, although again if you're Turbo'd, I'm not sure how much even doing that would matter).

yes staying turbo just bought an atr lump that has been sleaved already ect ect then had mild panic attack that it wouldn't go in!

I have been waiting 6 months for an uprated inlet for the supercharger so I can finish the build. It arrived today.

finally.
Atts is going. New 2k gearbox is going on soon.
