Nope and nope.

EDIT: my roommate still has his and its got issues that I never want to deal with again. stupid little **** that annoys the **** out of you.

I like having torque and making power for nearly nothing.

Sorry man but that was one of the biggest reasons I sold my lude. I wanted to be at 350 - 400 whp and have room to grow on the parts I bought. The cost wasn't worth it. With the STi it will take about 5k to be at 400whp, have traction and better handling while still having room to grow.

Don't get me wrong, I love preludes, but they are more fun stock (with suspension)then power modified.

 

u need to come back to the darkside. i did and loving every min of it!!! ya thats right bitch, im back and better then ever...

tommy (jtcdudeman) has about got his 3rd gen h22 done again, and i about got chase (ludeykrus) talked back into bringing his back from the dead...come on, u know u miss telling the ricers the stfu and then stomping on it destroying thoses ******** in the big v-8's that think they're doing something

edit: besides knowing what we know now, we can build such badass ****, for so much less then we did back then. plus it wont be a dd, so u can take ur time, do it right, so u dont have all thatg little **** to always be fixing

yeah im gonna have to agree with shakes on that, ever since i hit more than 300whp.. ( my old setup).. its not as fun.. like i cant WOT the car all the time like i used to when i had bolts on.. or greddy turbo kit on stock boost.. i would wot that kit all the time.. but when i upgraded.. and the car became much faster.. its too damn risky to wot a car that makes 400hp.. its scary.. and im worried about cops too. its really hard to explain.. i know i drove the car much more conservatively when i was past 300whp.. simply bc it was just too scary to wot the damn thing if there were other cars around..

just call me a wuss.. i dunno.. HAHA

 

i cant lie though shakes, i rode in a sti the other day. stock except dp, ecu and turned the boost up to 18....i had dirty thoughts going though my mind...i went home and appoligzed to my lude after that so she wouldnt be jelious, lol

i will admit though, as far as "fun to drive" i think i did enjoy the greddy kit more than the T3/T04E .60 trim

score... i seem to have made many sig worthy quotes over the years

 

bring it on back.

 

so....any other views??

 

I would buy another if I were you. Unless that tl is manual I would sell it. My dad owns a 03 acura tl stype s. Its fast but If I had a choice I would go with a prelude and boost it. If your going to sell it, sell it soon because the prices on those things are dropping. My dad bought his in 2004 for like 32k now worth somthing around 20k.

mines an 05 6-speed manual... my dad wants a new truck, so i might justlet him trade in the TL on an 07 Silverado and take his 01 and trade my Cherokee for a another BB6
