Hello from Bulgaria,
I bought new Prelude 2.3i before 2 weeks.It runs 0-100km/h for 9.2sec.In my opinion this is pretty slow.I 've replaced fuel filter,oil,new main belt(im not sure what's the exact word for this),new air intake,fixed engine head. What could be the problem?How can i solve it? I want accelereation equal to 8sec or less.TY !

if you're not getting any Check engine lights and you did a little tune up, it probably comes down to timing it wrong...

My S model with an F22 engine does 0-60mph in like 8 seconds stock, 9's seems pretty high. Is it manual or automatic? If it's manual then the way you're shifting/driving it is most likely the reason.

Also, tires, wheels and suspension can also affect the times.
