I just purchased a Greddy Kit with intercooler (NIB)...it was such a good deal I had to get it (1900). Anyway, my car is basically stock...it is a 98 Honda Prelude. What do I need to do in order to turbo ready my car? Thanks

if you're going to run from 6-8 psi you should be fine on stock internals. any higher and you will need sleeving, forged pistons, etc.

better start lookin for a clutch because more than likely your stock clutch wont last long pending what stock lude clutchs can hold.

what about exhaust? i've been looking for a 3" diameter one but all I can find is the regular 2 1/2.

u would have to get a custom 3" exhaust made for your car.

I'm guessing because you want us all to go do YOUR research and bottle feed it to you.
There are several different ways and opinions about what needs to be done to boost a lude safely (if there is such a way). If you aren't good with a wrench, you should probably just go have it installed somewhere. AF is good for some information, but you should always get a second opinion in other places as well.
My suggestion is to call or email Greddy's CA office and ask them first... that's what I would do.
