where are you located? i think you'd be better off just driving it to a speed shop, handing them all your money, and leaving your pants down for 30 minutes

Yo yo yo don't touch the car until you have some idea what you are talking about. Read FAQs and do basic mechanic work before you try to turbo anything....

your going to spend thousands on a turbo, rebuilding the engine to make it strong enough, and getting somebody to do all that is going to be expensive. Just buy a bike(get a cbr) so if somebody smokes your prelude, tell them you have a honda that will smoke them. Then go home get the bike and go burn them.

you and me both know that this guy's build will never happen in a million years . I don't think anyone in 2011' is going to make an automatic Prelude fast. If someone would make a powerglide RWD Prelude, they have my support though

lol do you ride? if you do, do you ride to race cars on public roads? dunno bout you, but i'm scared shitless riding normally around cages, riding wrecklessly around a wreckless cage is begging to get maimed.

Can they also go home and get their ZX10R? Your CBR will have a nice view of the Kawi's tail light the whole way down the strip.

you gotta be joking me with this bike talk guys.. all 4 of the big 4 hypers are advanced to the point that valentino rossi himself can't use all of the potential. A ZX10R vs. a CBR1kRR will yield different results a lot of the time

True. I just dont get why people think that a bike versus a (stock) car is any kind of match? My theory is that they watch too much Fast & Furious or Biker Boyz.

I'll be rolling way behind on my VTX or TLS though.
