Actually I think it's down right retarded. A lude is not a race car, not a drag car, and definitely not made to be turbo'd. If it was, Honda would have done it from the factory. Turbos on a lude are unreliable, you've got to tune them all the time and for it to work halfway right you will need engine management that will be a easy 600-1400 bucks. You will need this for all motor too but at least once it's tuned you wont have to screw with it much. All you're going to do is spin the tires off and break axles. Ludes aren't made for straight line speed although they can hang with lot's of big boys if done right! To have a prelude run right on a turbo you will have 4500-6000 to sleeve, build, balance, and blueprint the motor to run forged pistons. A good turbo setup will run you anywhere from 2000-3500 for top of the line equipment! Engine management anywhere from 600-1400 bucks, and upgraded axles at least 400 probably more. That's close to ten grand and if you get a nice 5th gen you're looking anywhere from 8000-16,000 grand. Why not just buy a MR2 turbo or supra if you want a better drag car! If you turbo your h22 with stock internals it's going to blow up no questions asked! One time with boost spike and you're done. To do it right would be $$$$ but could work but that's not my cup of tea. Does this make sense or am I an idiot?
