I have a 1995 Prelude SE, with the H23 engine. So far the mods I have dont to it are:

17 inch Motegi rims with Falken Tires
AEM Intake
DC Sport Headers
Hi-Flow Cat
2 1/2" exhuast with megnaflow muffler
Denso Iridium Plugs with Nology Hot Wires
AEM Fuel Presure Regulator
AEM Fuel Rail
And I have my valve cover painted

... also I have a set of AEM pullys sitting in my room.

My goal really is to have the most horsepower possible but im on a budget that probbaly restrics me from going Turbo. $1000 is about the amount I want to spend on the rest of my car. I am having trouble deciding what to do next.

Some possibilities are things liek Cam Gears, new ignition system, upgraded fuel injectors, an air fuel controller maybe ever swtiching out the cams but the problem is finding good mods for an H23 to gain any power at all. I could also go another road and just do some suspension upgrades but what im really looking for is more horsepower. If anyone could give me some ideas or even websites with some parts I could consider please help me out

 

Go for NOS. Like evryone says "best bang for the buck!"

 

If you're not going to go turbo, get the new Crower cams for H23...Stage 3's claim 18 HP. Those with springs and retainers is about $7-800...

 

I say go for the cams too...but it may cost u over $1000, cuz u will still want to get the thing tuned with an SAFC or hondata...

 

get a vtec head and all the appliences, or do ur suspension if you arent lowered yet

 

hahaha, how bout DIY ITB's I'd like to see that on a lude!

 

How about some some pulleys, that's what my mechanic said to make my H23 go faster.

 

suspension or cams

 

nitrous

 

I cant really find crower cams for the H23, could you gimmie a web site to find them?

I second that Helps your 1/4 a lot. The ride from stock to aftermarket is great .... obviously.

I noticed you said you want springs blah blah, but want to go more towards horsepower. Good times/speed isnt all about horsepower. You have to consider weight, traction etc. etc. Take your spare tire out and the jack.... and lower your lude. Shocks/springs are a great idea.

KYB AGX + H&R Sports for $600 installed.

 

The Crower H23 cams are being sold, but their site isn't updated yet. Here is their contact info....www.crower.com/misc/contact.shtml, just call or e-mail them and you can order them that way.....

Yeah, also you could get an Unorthodox Ultra SS pulley set, good power there...

 

Getting rid of the heavy wheels and going back to stock both decreases 1/4mi times and saves money.

Oh my bad. The guy was asking for some opinions on what would improve his performance. I gave him an option. Sorry I didn't look up the EXACT time differances stock vs. aftermarket. Way to be a dick

 

i think SKDRCR was playing. everybody will agree that a good suspension setup makes a difference in the 1/4mile. if not drag racers would be riding on stock suspensions.

his goal is the most hp possible on a low budget so i suggested nitrous

 

why did you waste money on the AEM FPR & rail? that **** is expensive, and you've got plenty of fuel in stock form.

sell those parts and buy something else.

 

Sorry for the sarcasm guys. had a bad day

 

Yah nitrous it up

 

If you are looking for cams al little cheaper in price http://www.webcamshafts.com makes some for h23 I believe they are regrinds but its a bit cheaper than crower.

 

im new but nitrous..NO WAY...unless u want that motor going by by...get a cam or suspension

if his motor is in good shape and he does the proper procedures like
colder plugs and a little ignition retard and some tuning he can run
it fairly safely

 

if you get NAWZ make sure you get like a 3 foot wing because you will be able to do atleast 210...and youre really going to need it! ...haha just playin man...i say suspension and cams
