i believe max piston speeds in the 2.2L have been INCREASED...less RPM but more distance

Somewhat useless trivia:
Pre '04 the max piston speed 4906 feet per minute at 8900 rpm, whereas the '04's peak at about 4761 feet per minute at 8000 rpm.

also, the F22 uses a dummy head to hone the bores to minimize distortion when a head is mounted. also the cylinder liners are no longer iron, they are a carbon/aluminum mixture...just like the NSX. they may have carried these changes in the newer F20C...i don't know.

The cylinder liner material is called FRM for Fiber Reinforced Metal. The F20C also uses this material, as does the NSX and the last generation Prelude.
