Default Driveability on a 350-400 whp 4th gen prelude

Hi

Can someone tell me how it is to drive a 350-400 whp lude?

For the moment, I use sticky 17" 215/45 tires.

I`m in the process of building my sleeved H22 engine, expensive and time consumeing but I hope it will pay of.

Thanks

H22 powered civic with 400+hp. Great torque but 1st and 2nd were slippery unless I backed off the throttle. Use an SBC-blitz boost controller and only boost to 16lbs in 3rd gear and up. works fine with BFG street slicks and feels like a race bike.

Driveability is fine. I was running around 415whp daily on low boost on my old h23a set-up. One thing you will need as already mentioned is a LSD.

Other than that, you'll enjoy it Just do the routine maintanance and don't cut corners on the build.
