There is a free boost upgrade disc that allows you to get 800 hours of free boost once you upgrade...

Don't listen to all these haters. They are just being jerks. The best bang for your buck would be to by like a T-88 Turbo. Run about 26psi and make sure to get your washer fluid replaced with high boost fluid... otherwise you'll have BIG problems. Oh yeah getting headers will help too.

you guys are all forgetting to get a good HEADER for your turbo, DC is the best hands down.

Ok what I meant was what would be some recommended turbos? I was told somewhere that T3 would be ok? I don't know much about turbos so if you could leave some helpful tips and not smart *** responses?

I thought HT is where you go if you needed help?

Are you wanting to do a custom setup or a "bolt-on" kit?

No preludepower seems to be the only place you can get help. Here there are about 20 guys that know too damn much about preludes and they flame everyone who doesn't know as much as them... Then there are the guys that don't know their *** from a blow off valve but still flame...

hehe no hard feelings we were all just playing, the turbo that you want depends mostly on what your power goals are. if you want something that spools very quick and you can run 7 to 8 psi you can go with a relitively small T3. but if you going to want alot of power you will prob want to go with the to4e 57 tirm or 60 trim, these seem to e the turbos i come accors alot tha people are using in the kits for the prelude. If you are lookin g for a custom setup you going to have to build from the ground up. but if you don't know a whole lot but have the money buy a premade kit, check out http://www.maxrev.com.

but if you insist on it being a custom setup , please tell us what you HP goals are

Oh, also it's going to be a beater for work and street. I just really need some tips and ya know anyone who has experience or used any turbos that isn't too "fast" just something that i can tune down and up not too much but always get a nice boost.
