I am seriously thinking about a solid turbo build for my 5th gen. Just wondering what kind of HP is TOO much for the lude.

What range of HP would cause too much wheel hop to be have a streetable daily driver? I just don't want to throw all the cash down for a 1st-3rd wheel hoppin' front wheel drive car when I can get a GSXR600 for that kind of money.

I am looking to school your average 350, rx8, evo... blah blah blah. Thinking maybe the mid to high 3's with respect to HP. How does the car handle it? Is it worth the effort/$?

Knowledge from such wise individuals as yourselves is greatly appreciated.

 

IMO, don't go much over 400hp. Do get a Quaife or Kaaz LSD, poly motor mounts and a PFI traction bar (pfispeed.com).

 

Maybe send a pm to Oaks Racing to get his opinion. He would know for sure. He has something like 788whp. Insane.

Damn that IS insane!!! Although that is out of my league, it gives me a starting point for upgrades.

Any daily drivers think your prelude has TOO much HP?

HA HA! I just re-read that and it is funny.
Just trying to get an idea.

Thanks for your help hu.

 

I think the member Jon-D or johnD has a 5th gen with sc 61 putting down 430whp. you mite wanna hit him up also.
