sorrie i was in a hurry to type

 

I'd say the most bang for your buck is nitrous

 

Yo dude don't do nitrous. Get either simple bolt on's or go with the JRSC since it's a bolt on. It's tru that you will get the most bang for the buck on nitrous but yur gonna have to fill that bottle often and pushing that button. In my personal opinion nitrous is kinda gay, but that's just me.

 

Start with your suspension for a consideration...

 

are you planning on going turbo supercharger or N/A in the future?

 

First you need to come up with some REALISTIC performance goals to reach. Then we can help you decide on how to get there.

 

Simple bolt-ons and JRSCs don't put down **** for hp. That's not my personal opinion, that's what the dyno says. Granted, you should build a quick car and then use nitrous as the final nail in the coffin, but a 50 shot is the cheapest and easiest way to knock a second off of your ETs. Hell, I put down 217whp/202trq with an untuned 75 shot, and I'll be looking at 250whp for next season.

 

Yo Dude.. he said leat amount of money..
Putting on a supercharger in a prelude has been described as an expensive nightmare..

 

You need NOS, and you know what? You need it by tonite!! People will give you a line of crap when it comes to going fast for cheap----JRSC, yeah, $3000, $2200-2500 if it's used without the 100,000 warranty. I want the JRSC, but for you my friend, nitrous is the anwer. For just a little over $1500, get the following if you want to knock at LEAST a second off of your time: 1.) Holley fuel pump, 2.) MSD 6A ignition with blaster coil (you won't even need step colder plugs with this), 3.) cold air intake (best bolt-on gains), and 4.) 70-80 shot of nitrous with proper tuning. Sounds good to me, what about you Laughin?

 

didnt graduate school either did you?

Be prepared to lose a point or two on your percentage.. possibly even banned when JG gets out of class..

 

A 50 shot will knock off close to a second. For a 50 shot you can use a dry kit($450-500), a purge kit($100), and colder plugs(NGK-BRK7E). That's all that you'll need. A fuel pump won't be needed until you get above a 75 shot, which will require you to use a direct port kit. hoever if your pump is old and not flowing enough fuel a walboro 225 lph in-tank pump and an fpr will take care of any potential problems. We've actually been getting away with running a 65 shot with just colder plugs, but I would still recommend getting an MSD 6a and a coil if you any misfiring.

 

How long did it take you to type that ****. And if you speak English and not Stunna style maybe some intelligent people will reply.
When to shift. Ummmm if you have an Automatic you don't need to worry about shifting the Automatic tranmission does it for you. Man you are a newbie to cars in general.

 

greddy turbo kit

 

I'd say spend the money on premium insurance. Because if you drive anything like you spell, its a complete ******* wreck.

Bwahahaha. Thats pretty funny.

My friend, if all you are concerned about is speed, you got the wrong car. Old 5.0 rustang is what you really want. If you care about all around performance, I'd recomend a good set of tires

 

Maybe we'll scare him off the forum.

 

see if you can trade in your auto lude for stick without a big $$$ loss....
that's a big upgrade in itself....

 

oh my ******* lord.

hELp CuZ i A NooBiE!! HeLp On My PrElUde

Type like that again and I'll start docking points so fast you'll think your computer went retarded.

 

 

 

By the way... hay is for horses.

 

own3d!!!!

 

I will just throw in a caution about nitrous here - if you use it and can be conservative with it, that's great. Just don't fall into the "well, if a 50 shot is perfect, a 100 shot is twice as perfect" mentality - also beware of the boost-creep phenomena - "well a 50 shot worked fine, and a 65 shot is only a little more so surely that would be ok with this setup too..."
