2001 lude vs. 1st gen TSI - Honda Prelude Forum

bigguy225 · 10-15-2005, 12:32 AM

I just raced a 1st gen Talon TSI fwd from a 80kph roll (second gear). When I shut it down at 130kph he was ahead by less than half a car. His car looked and sounded stock so i'm a little surprised I lost considering that with bolt-ons and e-manage I dynoed at 200whp. Does anyone know how many whp a stock fwd TSI puts down? I guess he could have had a boost controller or something

any minor mod will give a 4g63 equipped car more whp than you have with all your bolt-ons combined... turbo > na

It's not fair. I think if I was going to do it all again I would have skipped all the bolt-ons and e-manage and just got a muffler, a few cosmetic mods and called it quits! spending thousands on i/h/cc/e/p and engine management for the 30hp I picked up wasn't worth it!

free mods allow dsm 6s 0-60

I've been a dsm owner for 9 years
$1500 dropped into a 4g-63t will conquer many

turbo 4G63's are 205hp at the crank STOCK. But as others said it is so easy to increase HP w/cheap mods.

I know a guy that has about $4k in his car(including the car!!) and he hits high 13's/low 14's consistently.

he said a STOCK one though.. Not one with mods.. Stock against stock there should be NO problem.. I have raced first gen turbo's before also, and the newer ones.. NO problems..
