Hey guys, Sorry im a newbie here but I do love preludes to death so much I saved every penny I earned for 2 years so I could buy one. The one I ended up with was a very nice reciently repainted 94 "S" model with some really nice rims and tires but what im asking is how does the s stand up to the si and vtec, how does it respond to I/h/e among other mods, is there a better engine to put in there and just general things I guess. I am really excited to own this car but can I get a little info please
i've got an AEM CAI, DC headers, hi flo cat, and apex'i dunk exhaust. It a lot better than it would be and with all the little stuff it will be just as fast as an SI, but go with a VTEC swap if you get a chance, thats what i'm doing in a few months.
Just enjoy the pleasure of owning the greatest generation of the prelude, and welcome to greatest web site ever. You will find a lot of info about your car and a lot of advise. Post pics of your car.

Adding I/H/E to an S model will give you some noticable gains don't expect too after but you'll notice a little increase in power and acceleration.

like sik96prelude said, just enjoy the car you got. 4th gen lude is a pretty car. And, don't worry about spending too much money on your car unless you want to race it. At least I don't!!! So, just put the CAI and header and nice muffler (I/H/E) basically it is enough.
I am surprised there weren't any harsh words said on the "ugly duckling"...welcome to the club!
I wish I didn't have OBDII though but I have the :workaround" installed. Great gas mileage, great looking and I beat a modded Eclipse GS and an auto Teggy LS (rolling)! stock....
10.46secs@1/8mi fully stock (no filter)
No runs yet after the mods above
Goodluck and have fun with it if you choose to get it.

I only ran my car once at the track....best thing about this particular run is that I had the opportunity to see a 427 Shelby Cobra run right beside me (or ahead of me )...test and tune run...he ran like a 8.xx secs on the eighth
