You're about to get flamed. So ill start, why would u need to go faster than that? SLOW DOWN.

Get a Acura TSX K24A2 swap. Then you can have a 6-speed transmission. And slow down on the street before you kill someone.

lol i have an f series transmission, might as well be a 6spd
revs a little under 1,000 rpms less than what an m2b4 tranny does at the same speed on my H-deuce-bo-baggins

buy me good on gas too

if you were to get a 6 spd it wouldnt just be to lower your highway gear....it would make all the other gears shorter.....

and going off the results that the guys are getting with putting the shorter-geared b series trannys on h22s with adapter plates, they make the car a bit quicker.....the b4 is good, but the powerband of most of our all motor cars is shorter than the b4 compensates for.....

but you will never get a 6 spd on your prelude without spending at least 5k plus....so keep dreaming...

in the meantime you could swap an f22 5th gear into your current trans to save gas....
