Hello to all, i have a prelude 92 which i have swaped the engine for a h22a jdm engine, so know i want to add some more horse power and was looking into turbos, but the thing is thier not really a kit out thier that i have found for my car, so am guessingi have to buy stuff separatly, so i wanted to ask you guys for some tips in how to build me a good turbo system, with intercooler, controller the works, any help is greatly apprciated

 

I see red strips on your hood and roof. LOL. Tell me, how much horsepower does that add ?

You are not ready for a turbo. Sorry, the truth. First thing that came to mind is that you bought a JDM h22a motor that has high compression pistons 10.6:1. You will have to drop that compression by digging into your block, can you even touch a block at this stage of your 'car experiences' ? It's just a question, everyone starts somewhere.

 

well to being with the honda with red strips is my civic, and the car am learing stuff for is my prelude 4gen, and those red strips where from my car was stolen, but again thats not the car am worried about its my prelude, thanks

 

Are you really ready for boost?
My advice is if you can't install it a turbo kit, you don't deserve it.....
Sorry.

 

low boost and a good tune is fine.

 

I dont know if hes ready for boost, but I dont think thats true, I dont install anything my mecanic does all that for me I just race the car.

 

ShadowPrelude92 I think you should look into more though there are many turbo kits look at the Turbonetics kids or the Greddy complete kits.

 

you don't think its true because you are on THAT side.
RACE? 13.9x in an H22 Hatch isn't racing.......Its spirited driving at best.

 

13.9 bone stock is quick frehs build I race my car didint build it.its not racing what is it crusin on a sunday I aint on that side you might be . ur gunna be seeing 12 second slips in the spring.

 

12s with Boost? Yaaaawwwnnnnnn!!!....

 

Yah sure bone stock jdm h22a turbonetics kit 8psi 300whp on a good tune, ill be in ther 12's for sure ull be yawning alright clown

 

the fact that you throw 8psi and 300whp around means yes....Yaaawwwnnnn.....

 

It is what it is brother, those 2 number go together perfactly with H22a. When you got a good mecanic and a good tuner, those 2 numbers are seen all day. I dunno who does your work or tunes your car but thats what that setup produces its proven. 280+whp

 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=auVWMJ2R0E0 proven right there, from a Local shop

 

8psi wouldn't make anywhere near 300whp on the dyno I use.....
dynos are for tuning, not bragging.
Good mechanic/good tuner=Not enough
Once its tuned, then make a great pass.....Thats th real proving ground. Not some Rollers hooked up to a computer.

 

u dont make sence the dyno is right there my friend proven face it 300whp 8psi stock h22 i dunno what dyno your using or what kinda tuning you do. Who said they were bragging rights it is what it is.

 

And 300whp from a Turbo H22 is still weak regardless.......

 

Make some sence now.lol 300whp is nothing on a bone stock h22 at 8 psi your jokes.LOL. Whelse do you expect to make lol one day build the bottom end and boost it right up. wake up

 

STFU noob.....learn to spell if you're going to throw shots at me.

Boosting a stock H22 is still drunk driving.......Those ringlands may not even make it through a Dyno session, or they may last for years.
And 12s in a Boosted H22 EK is still weak
We were doing that in an EK All Motor-Stock internals 7yrs ago.....

 

At sea level. True. This dude is in Canada. Elevation is a factor. The H22 civics around here (5300 ft) barely break the 14 sec barrier. N/A Preludes are running around 16s! The cars at sea level are totally different beasts.

 

ur a clown what do u think this is english class u monkey. thinkin of the past isint gunna get u anywhere.Im a noob lol ur a verterina with over 4000 unless chirpin posts. 8 psi stock h22 handles it no problem safety my friend. like i said build bottom end and up the boost and ur talkin crazy numbers. BTW well see what slip i pull in im just tellin u stock h22 300whp 8 psi ill give u a slip i estimate 12's who knows prolly better

 

whats he figure he knows everything over 4000 posts and no useful information for me

 

lol ^^^ anyways shadowprelude92 you should look around and search for boosted forums... I was where u were, h22a and wanted more.... I looked around for at least 6 months into forced induction and how toos...and when your ready for boost go for it... All in all I would start out with a simple bolt on kit such as GReddy... good luck...

Name calling will get you nowhere....
And saying they handle 8psi no problem is a noob statement.......and untrue.
People have destroyed ringlands with 5psi on the dyno and others have made 400whp+ for years w/o incident.
Sounds like you're banking on Consistency in metallurgy[and cast at that] and sometimes you will be let down....I understand your thinking, you're a noob.
My friends H22A1 @ 7psi was fine....turned it up to 10psi and it lasted a week.......
