Default Help! What basic upgrades needed?

I have a '95, it has a cold air intake and a Skunk exhaust.It has a short shift kit on it so pretty basic . It has 190000 miles on it and wanted to know if there is any special rebuild kits you guys suggest for it. Im planning on throwing on a turbo but what upgrades do it need to do to it to make it ready for it. Also looking to throw a 150 wet shot into the mix. Any ideas will help.

I would highly NOT suggest a "anything" shot, let alone a 150 - turbo is a lot more dependable option in my opinion.

Tuning is the best upgrade you can give a car, no matter what you throw at it!

Read through the FAQ's page at the top of the Prelude forum, it's full of good info!

like you said, i don't think you are going to be able to do any type of forced induction without rebuilding the motor. Of course unless you don't care if it blows up shortly after boosting or spraying. Use the search buttom for more information but it sounds like you have a lot of research to do. Power costs money so it really depends on how much you want to make.....set a goal.
