OP, I had a 1999 Prelude with a similar setup to what you're running. If you want to buy a good setup I can link you to ALL the parts you need and even make you a mini-portfolio with all the parts you'll need for the build.
I can get you running about as much power as you want. PM me
omfg! I think he has that really rare JDM engine.... its called a ... "PEN15"it like produces 350 HP if you tweek the ECU, and lean out the gas. I dunno... go write that down and ask your local import tuner shop if your cars a member of the PEN15 Club!
Man my friend had PEN15 spec motor in his garage and sold it, he didn't even know! The block is stamped on the back of the motor, it's hard to see. I think it's for stealth. I've only seen a few for sale ever! Do you think he really has a PEN15?!
Dude, 310 hp??? Holy sh1t! I can't even get that after tuning my SEARCH i/h/e combo AND running a huge 75 wet shot... Insight PLZ!!!
I wonder if he has SEARCH cams and rods too... i bet that is the difference... man... great power... do you have any videos of you hanging with 10sec cars? i would love to see some... i miss my old prelude... the audi never felt has good as the prelude.... the prelude was so much fast and could handle better too... sigh... maybe i'll be able to get another prelude one day
^ I had SEARCH do a special re-grind on my cams and the difference was INSANE. My idle was a little more rough but the dyno results made it worthwhile.
prelude nos 21: shoot me a PM and I can get you set with everything you'll need for a build.
I call BS. I do not believe you're running 10's with 310 hp (and I'm hoping that 310 is to the wheels). Theres a prelude with 366 whp and does not reach 10's. My friend's S/C 450+hp to the crank Acura TL is only a high 12's/ low 13's. If all you have is bolt-ons with some spray there is no way you're running 10's. Not trying to be a dick, but I just don't believe unless you have pics of running 10's or a dyno chart if anything.

whoa whoa... clam down dibbie downer... geez... 14 post and you think you run the place and know everything... his car could be light weight...
Not only that, but aerodynamics plays a huge factor in how you run at the track. The last car I saw that ran 10's, I walked up to the driver and he pointed out this special wax he uses (which they actually sell at Autozone! ) that makes the car "super slippery" through all the wind resistance! I wouldn't believe it until I got to put my wallet on his hood and the damn thing slid right off!
Also, I saw Popular Mechanics did a huge article on the aerodynamics and automobiles, they claim that's how drag racers literally drop seconds off of the 1/4 mile, amazing! If this guy wants a Prelude that goes into the 9's, he'd be wise to use this wax and the other drivers would never see what's coming!
Well, that's the thing, there isn't much proof to his claims. Second, I don't know what my posts have to do with anything. I've made multiple accounts in forums because I consistently forget my Acct//PW. Third, with the mods he has on his car, I really doubt he has done any weight reduction. I'm no negative nancy but I just like to point out BS.
Yup, that too prepreludesh. Love the misson you went through for your car btw

is there a crank dyno close to you? curious as to how that works...

SEARCH is really the only company that comes even remotely close to APC in terms of outright performance.
they even ported my oil return line on my turbo!
instant 23 hp and changed the turbo blades to a high strength plastic to save weight, then I painted them red!
instant 39 hp!!!
I :heart: SEARCH

Dude, I have no idea if he has a PEN15. OP ( Original POSTER), Can you please please please check under your hood and see if you have a PEN15! If you do, holy shizi do you have a lude even rarer then the Type R! Or hell even the gen5 Type S! It might be stamped on your ECU too... last 4 digits on it: PEN15!
PEN15 FOR THE WIN! I would so get a huge ass sticker on my rear window if I had your lude stating... thats right mother'fr.... I gots the big PEN15!
H22A4? hell Noez!.... PEN15 INSIDE!
