2. another h22a4? why... do you like to waste money? at least buy h22a which is jdm AND SLEEVED
3. Sorry man, but you seem like a guy who if had a boosted prelude would kill somebody on the road  jk. be safe |
There is so much fail here followed by win.
1. PSI means nothing unless we know what turbo you are taking about. Easy example without getting too involved: A big turbo at 7psi can "boost" more than a tiny turbo at 20psi. But remember that 250whp N/A would require a LOT more $ than 250hp at the flywheel.
2. ROFLCOPTER? They are FRM like all the H22's. IDK where you heard that from but I would be more sure about your information before spewing mis-information.
3. You might be right. I rofl when I read that.

The h22a4 is the better of the engines to use for boost as not only is it an open deck block but also because the oil sneding mount can be directl used as an eltronic oil pressure guage feed. anyway man if you are truly interested in boostying oyu h22 the call this guy:
Laskey Racing, and discuss getting your sleevs done and blueprinting with Mike Laskey.
last but not least if the only amount of HP you are goin for is 250 then just quit right now. to turbo charge a prelude correctly is an enourmous job and the cost per horsepower is just unreal high. also the list i had written you may be called by some to much and overkill however as soon as you start to realize that by changin any parameters of your cars setup you will ahve to continue chaning things until they all become equivalent in output potential. |
