yeah! im happy. I paided 16.9 for a blue 99 auto with 34.6K miles. good deal?

 

You're going to be disappointed with and automatic prelude...

 

Thats what I have heard, but I bought the auto because I wanted the auto. I am going to live in the city and a 5spd would have gotten a little, umm, redunant. I admit it, I am lazy. I am going to be only using this now as my daily driver, instead of alternating between the 7 and the nex (the 6 is not for long trips). So for that the car is ok.

I thought of finding a 5 spd for performance reasons and realized this would still be my 3rd slowest car (it missed fourth by a hair), so If I want performance, I will stick to the rear wheel drive cars for that thank you.

All that said, I would of still bought a 5spd, provided that it was available. After looking around, all I could find was 3 cars, all autos, 2 with high miles, so i opted for this one.

That said, I assume/hope that it is possible to make a 233 hp prelude without nitrous/turbos/superchargers. I want at least 233 so its power to weight ratio is the same as my 7. Any suggestions?
Help is really appreciated.

 

cams would be good.

 

shouldve bought a 5 speed but nonetheless...nice choice

 

cams huh? which company makes the best? and about how much of a power increase?

 

You won't be able to push out 233hp with just bolts ons.

 

I paid 16.8 last year for a 98 silver, w/ 27,xxx. you got a good deal considering the year of yours.

 

Really, well what is the best anyway?

Im thinking, k&n air, intake maifolds, free flow exhast


what esle as far as bolt ons go?

 

My list for you.
-Intake. AEM CAI, or take off resonator and keep the stock air box and throw a K&N in it.
-Intake manifold wow that's pushing it. I'd stay away from that until you start on internals.
-Internals. Bunch of choices, Skunk2, Crower, Type S, and JUN. I not to that stage yet, so I don't know.
-Forced Induction. Greddy Turbo kit, or JRSC.
-Exhaust. 3" piping for FI applications. 2.5" at most for NA applications.
-Have have a Mugen system love.
-My second choice would have been Apex-i N1
-Header. Seem Mugen or SMSP (or whatever that mystery company is) is the best.
-Piggy Back Fuel controller. Apex-i V-AFC.
