is it in any way worth the trouble and money to do a turbo or super on a 97+ 2.2 VTEC LUDE
ssAAAAAMMMMMMMMYYYYYYYYYYY

 

Hell yeah! Every car deserves some sort of boost. After you get a 5 speed Prelude, get a kit and you'll be a boostaholic, and well known at the local hardware stores. You'll like it very much, especially when you can work on your car in the firestation's garage when everybody is sleeping......

 

hehehe ironically you have no idea how often i do that at the firehouse
the only problem is all the engine work i will have to do th make it work

 

also i have borrowed my friends grand national and i LOVE the crap out of turbo

 

I've worked on my car at a firehouse too, I know the deal....cough cough....Are you sure you don't want a GN? Anyway, the JRSC or a turbo will make you more than happy. I suggest the f-max for ease and completeness, but I have the drag and am very pleased. With the help of some trusty fire-guys, and a girl to serve drinks, you could have the turbo kit on in no time (3 days including the occassional cat in the tree duty)...... BTW, there are quite a few Preludes with happy turbos and SCs, check out hondaprelude.com and preludeonline.com....You will be swayed into the luxurious Lude........

 

great thanks
ive heard that its a real turd working forced induction with a 5th gen lude

 

Don't worry about it. Go over the turbo specs, learn to read compressor maps and get a turbo for your exact application. Us ex-rookies will help you out. It is alot more fun than nitrous. Upon the next day after the installation, I dynoed @250whp and 200+tq without tuning, it is not that much, but alot more than 170 stock.......
