I have a 2000 Lude, auto, base model. I am leaving for Iraq in January for a year so I was wondering when I get back I will have lots of money to drop into my ride so I would like to hear what kind of set up some prelude experts think I should put my hard earned $ into when I return next year. I will have a lot of money so don’t hold back. This is just engine work people, no cosmetic because I already have what I’m going to do to my baby pictured in my head. What kind of turbo, sleeves, etc should I do? Also do you guys think I should drop money into a manual swap, is it worth the $ or should I put that $ into something else?

edit: its all stock fyi, H22, about 120,000 miles

Thank you all for your help

If it were me I would have the engine rebuilt with some nice mild upgrades, a tune, factory bodykit, replace every damaged or worn part and detail.

Stay safe over there...hopefully things will start to calm down soon.

 

good luck in iraq.. if it was me, I wouldn't bother modding it. I would get a s2k!

 

what are some good sleeves to get for my turbo setup?

 

You don't want to run boost with your automatic tranny. Your tranny is pretty much gonna go to ruin if you do that. With that said, maybe you can swap your auto tranny with a JDM manual tranny, getting a LSD in the process. Then you can worry about boost and all that.
