Default Prelude Scene at 2006 NOPI Nationals....(56k Stay Away)

Ok, Well first things first...There were about 20-25 preludes there this year and I am glad that I saw more than just civics/tegs....BUT ALLLLLLLLLL the preludes that I saw, except for 3-5 preludes, were GARBAGE!!!! I havent seen such riced out preludes in all my life. I have pictures of just about every prelude that I saw there and will be posting them tomorrow considering I just got back from ATL at 2:00am. Anyway...I was so disappointed at all the preludes there that it has made me want to get rid of mine. I like my prelude a lot and have so much respect for them. I am seriously considering takeing my h22a and throwing it in a HB Civic....I expected a lot of rice from the civics/tegs....which i did see, but when it comes to the preludes I never thought that that many preludes would have been wasted. I know there are MANY on here that have VERY nice preludes and you all are the ones that I would have loved to see out there but none the less....I am disappointed in the preludes as far as NOPI 06.

Pictures will be posted tomorrow if you all want to see all the ludes that I saw while at NOPI.

(If this is supposed to be posted somewhere else...Please move...I just thought it was prelude related.)

Did you see the one I tuned on friday that put out 481whp? Unfortunately the wastegate limited to us to only 21psi... I'm sure Vinny will make a thread on this tomorrow

I was there as well and I completely agree with Anthony, pure junk. Unfortunately I wasn't there Friday to see your tune Precision, which really makes me mad. Was that car entered in the dyno competition?
And BTW, even though they aren't preludes, I saw a few damn nice civics and tegs too, namely PandaHatch came all the way from Ohio, it was great to see his car. What a piece of artwork

I didn't make it to Nopi this year... I had too much going on. But Vinny made a trip to Charleston in order for me to tune his car. The car took 3rd on the dyno competition.

I heard the winning dyno was 508whp. I could have smoked that if we would have been able to run more boost.

p.s. Florida state got owned!

Here are the pix...The 5th gens were reppin' pretty nicely for the most part....But the 4th gens...WTF!!!! LoL (and ignore the dates on the pictures...my camera screwed up! )











































































Well there are all the preludes that I got to see while I was there....I am really disapointed in the fact that the preludes that we all have taken pride in has become a popular rice mobile. Next year, I would love to get a HUGE group of NICE PRELUDES together and just roll in a own the place...

And like I said, For the most part the 5th gens held it down with all the rice stuff, but the 4th gens that were modded were hidious!

God damn. Thats some of the worst looking preludes ive ever seen. Most of the 5th gens are stock or mostly stock with huge ****** DUBS, or have such large body kits/wings it makes me vomit. Same with the 4th gens. WTF ? do people actually think their car looks good with all this **** on it ?

for NOPI. wayy down.

Im ready to get rid of my SH. ^_^

Honestly, they weren't as bad as you made them out to be. Most of them have a full bodykit, but this is a car show (the biggest, no doubt) so you can't really complain.

BTW, post up your ride.

i honestly believe that 80% of all the good looking 4th gen owners are regulars on this site.

the other 20% is lurking around...

then all the rest of the 4th gen owners drive riced out enchilada mobiles from a box of trix.
