h22a + boost.
my buddy just got his prelude turbocharged with a fmax kit.
the kit is great fit and finish in awesome seems like a great turbo setup.
he is not tuned yet, but the thing is making dog **** for power, like really slow.
i just wanted to get people opinions on boosted stock h22a
the car is a 01 prelude stock motor with a fmax kit and a greddy emanage
stock cat with a 2.5 inch exhaust. wastegate routed in the dp.

He needs to get it tuned, and should not be boosting on it until he does.

There is nothing wrong with boosting on a stock H22 if it is PROPERLY TUNED.

Re: h22a + boost. (sharkcohen)
ok i was just hearing some thing about the rings being kinda weak...
i have seen some 300whp stock turbo ludes.
i just want to know if they can handle that for very long on stock bottom end.

Re: h22a + boost. (slowsi00)
The ring lands are weak because the pistons are cast. Detonation can ruin even forged pistons. However, I wouldn't boost higher than 10 psi on a stock H22. I'm personally running 9 myself.

Re: h22a + boost. (sharkcohen)
Ringlands went in a friend of mines Prelude (F-max kit installed by me), ringlands have been the problem on others as well, however a properly tuned car will work miracles. L'orange's car is doing great I hear.
As far as the F-max kit,... good kit,... but it is still a KIT. Spend some money, get at least an AFC for minor tuning, put it on the dyno with a WIDEBAND .
