anyone?

You should drop in a Pontiac 3800 series.

thanks man a lot of people have said "that wont
work, it wont fit, it would be dumb"
but i think it would be pretty sick were doin it more
for the uniqeness than anything.
this one guy told us "just put the h22 in it
it would be cheaper, easier, and faster."
but like i said were doin it more for originality than speed
i mean its my first swap so....

Shimee · 01-20-2009, 02:37 PM

advice would be it probably won't fit.

uthinaia · 01-20-2009, 02:37 PM

thansk i will check on it

Tee-Dot · 01-20-2009, 02:38 PM

Cheaper, easier, and faster are all overrated.

I like your idea of expensive, complicated, and probably not very fast.

uthinaia · 01-20-2009, 02:40 PM

well we have a whole shop so
we have the tools to make it fit

Excellent. I'd love to see it done. If it doesn't fit make it fit since you got the tools as your disposal. While you're at it I say convert the prelude to rwd.

thanks money isnt really a problem cuz
i have a year to save for it

Tee-Dot · 01-20-2009, 02:42 PM

This may be a little farther down the road, but you should definately look into getting one of the new Search Intake Systems from Greedy. It's got a new noobulizing filter that has been proven to dramatically increase hp and tq over stock levels.

edit: There are quite a few people, especially newer members, that are looking for a Search Intake System. It would probably be useful if you got a group together for a groupbuy.

You should make a Search Intake System groupbuy thread. I bet you could get a pretty big group for it. Probably save a lot of cash, too...

uthinaia · 01-20-2009, 02:46 PM

yeah maybe later

uthinaia · 01-20-2009, 02:46 PM

sweet

spin_r_g · 01-20-2009, 02:46 PM

I gotta get me one of them Search Intake Systems. It's leaps and bounds over my type s.

Tee-Dot · 01-20-2009, 02:47 PM

I absolutely love mine. The noobulization filter definately makes VTECH hit a lot harder!!

uthinaia · 01-20-2009, 02:48 PM

i need a shell
anybody know someone that has one?

Tee-Dot · 01-20-2009, 02:50 PM

You should just buy the whole car and then sell the stock parts. That way, you'll have the money for the V6, rwd tranny, and the Search Intake System.

uthinaia · 01-20-2009, 02:52 PM

like i said money isnt really a problem cuase i got a year to save

Tee-Dot · 01-20-2009, 02:55 PM

Which V6 are you going to use?
