With the proper timing and fuel curves many things can be done.
I am aware of the claims that FMax has, and I am also aware that this may be asking a lot from my car. My car is not a daily driven vehicle, although it can be daily driven the rising gas prices and 720cc injectors do not mix.
I am going to prove the non-believers wrong, you can accomplish 300+ wheel horsepower without having a built bottom end and gobs of boost
Now flame if you will, but if your smart you will study what engine management can do for your vehicle. Learn about it, then utilize your knowledge to gain more power than you thought possible

engine management doesn't do much better than what a rising rate regulator or mf-2 can do at low boost situations. As long as the a/f ratios are good and the combustion is sweet then what can an engine management do that is not already being done? not much at all. You're stock prelude hits about 165hp, and getting 300hp from 8psi is a 135 hp jump. i don't think it can be done.
I'm not flaming you at all, i'm just telling you that HP is very over rated in terms of "a turbo will give me 1000000000hp."
good luck on your venture though. show us a dyno of what you get.
what are your exact turbo specs btw. It makes a difference. I've seen a turbo that put out great top end (good for saying i got 400hp) but had such crappy low and mid end power.
