question about mods - Honda Prelude Forum

Cam gears/safc/msd igntion/jet ecu.....are these mods that helpful to a naturally aspirated engine, or are they better for a turbo set up? I have intake/header/exhuast and pulleys right now.(and some plug wires if that's even worth mentioning)

When properly tuned (using dyno time and wide band 02 sensor) the items you mentioned could gain you anywhere from 10-20hp. I wouldnt get the Jet ECU if you are also going to buy an SAFC and the MSD ignition. Since you can tune your fuel curve with the AFC and adjust the ignition with the MSD.

Nearly all mods will work well on both NA and turbo. The main advantage to turbo engines is that most mods will give (sometimes significantly) more horsepower.

Yeah, the only notable mod that isn't good for both N/A and turbo are camshafts. You need to get different profiles defending on the app.
