Prelude Turbo

Hey folks this is my first post. I really need help. I'm hoping to boost my 97 lude by this summer, but I really wanna make sure it's the right choice. I'm a collage kid so this shit is expensive, and i wanna make sure im doing it right.

Right now im looking at either the F-max kit, or the Grag gen III. These things come with the FMU regulators, and the fmax comes with the MSD detonation killer too. With this setup, should i be able to install and run on stock internals @ 7psi? I really wanna do some serious work, but more than that i don't wanna blow my motor, as my parents helped pay for half the car, and they dont really know about the turbo. Please gimme some good advice, and If you have a prelude, moreover a 5th gen, youre a pimp. Peace, please any advice would be good. Ill be postin on here a lot so hopefully you can keep from getting annoyyed be me! Again, peace folks.

7psi on a internally stock vtec, yea that'd be ok. idk much more about the prelude, except similar engine to civic-just more power and bigger. post in prelude forums, might be more helpful there.

If you don't have an SH model, look into the Greddy kit. Neither the DRAG or FMAX kits are very well engineered and both qill require spending a lot more money in order to make them work properly on a street driven car. Plus, the H22 isn't as happy being boosted as the Honda B and D series motors, so you need to be a lot more careful about the setup you run on your Prelude.

If you have an SH, I'd recommend not turbocharging it at all. Just get a 50 shot of nitrous and be done with it.
