I wandered in here to see what was up w/ the lude people.
I talk to Jeff (Baked), Jon (Deceptakon), and Erik (Thatchmaster) about their ludes and they are always saying engine upgrades are hard to come by. They say no SC available, N/A awesomeness is a dream, and turbo kits that are available suck. Turbo has to be custom to be good. This post is mainly about engine stuff.
I just read the JUN N/A post and just reading that made my head spin. I hate when something is so awesome, sounds good on paper, has been tested even, but isnt available. Sounds like the Endyn Sc'er, huh? I know thats not a fair comparison, but it's reality.
It's not too hard to get stuff on the B side. There is plenty of stuff to do whatever you want. I dont see why a good engine (either h22 or h23) is so neglected. I must be missing something. Are there any prelude builders out there??
I met Grant Lockwood at a Driver school in Alabama. He has a nice race lude, but some of the things can be toned down and be streetable, even though its a franken engine. I wonder how deep some of you have actually researched your engine. Good things come to those who know what to look for. And you know by what you want, not what everyone else wants.
I hope that the lude will receive more attention engine wise. At least you have much to choose from appearance wise. Not that the lude is lacking in this dept anyway
Good luck on your plans and your accomplishments,
Pete
