1994 Prelude Help

I have the Si H23 Prelude, and I was looking for headers on ebay, but all they have are the cheap ones. Can the VTEC headers from an H22 Prelude fit my engine? I just want some name-brand headears that will last more than two weeks. PM me if you have an answer please, Thanks

Re: 1994 Prelude Help

I was thinking about getting them, I just found out that Megan Racing is fairly decent. I was just looking for some DC Sport ones or something. I just got my car like a week ago. What else is there to do to make it faster? I'm not going to turbo it though. I have just a ram-air intake right now. PM me or something and let me know what else I can do. Thanks :]

Re: 1994 Prelude Help

No. The VTEC header will NOT fit on the H23. The bolts don't line up, and the down piece on the header is longer on the H23 than it is on the H22. Just get the ones for the h23 if you're gonna get them.
I have a $120 header from ebay on my JDM h22, and i like it. I have no rust, and no cracks.

Re: 1994 Prelude Help

Yeah I have exhaust. Its got 2.5"piping all the way through and a pretty small tip for the low end torque. Na, I dont have a goal, I just want it fast, without using turbo. So tell me everything I can get that isnt really expensive :]

Re: 1994 Prelude Help

I wanna get around like 170-190 w/o engine swap, because I don't have a job yet, cause I'm about to be 16. But when I do what could I get besides turbo/engine swap?

Re: 1994 Prelude Help

it would be like 600 for the springs, retainers, valves, valve seals, and a block guard.

Re: 1994 Prelude Help

Ok, thanks. Ill talk to my brother about it. But, the page says:
"NOTE! As of January 1st 2007, KMS will no longer accept engine block work. Due to the overflow of cylinder head requests we are targeting our efforts to accommodate the demand."
Would that be a problem?
But what would I do? Take out the engine and ship it to them?

Re: 1994 Prelude Help

no, just take the head off and send that to them. then they will do the work and send it back to you. leave the block in the car.

Re: 1994 Prelude Help

Ok, cause I don't know that much about Hondas. My brother is the moderator on AF, and he knows a lot more than I do. But thanks a lot.
