Cheap upgrades?

Is there anything like a turbo/headers/etc etc that would be avaliable for the 88 'lude? I would especially like a supercharger, but I don't think they have them avaliable for my car model (or do they?) Does anyone out there know the full list of the limited amount of upgrades that you can make to ths car? Or if not, dos anyone know what upgrades you can make period besides an intake?

I need some help...

Try ebay if you want to save a little money. Search 88 prelude from the home page. You can also search 89 90 91. I have spent about 3 stacks on parts for my 88 Si. I have purchased a body kit,JDM motor, Intake, Audio and bunch of more stuff. Ebay is the source to buying the parts I need. If you have truobles finding anything let me know. I can find it. Email me at [email protected]

Re: Cheap upgrades?

you can get some gains from using synthetic oil, i suggest royal purple, an replacing all the other fluids. its not much, maybe 3-4 horsepower at most but its worth it, keeps the engine in good shape

Re: Cheap upgrades?

www.preludepower.com is another great pelude site.
There are tons of parts for a 88 lude. Try finding parts for a 87.

BTW there is no "Cheep upgrade" for large HP gains. $ + Knowhow = HP.

Well the way I see it, ANY Hp for cheap is welcome : ) I've heard about people putting turbos on the B20A5 (my stock engine) Anyone happen to know how to install one or know where to find instructions?

Re: Cheap upgrades?

WWW.PRELUDEPOWER.COM quit asking and fucking search around. Don't be lazy.

Any turbo set up will not be "Cheep".

For a junk yard turbo set up ( You will need to do welding for this ) your looking at $ 300-Anything

For a nice turbo set up it could cost you $1000 and up.

A Gredy intercooler kit runs around $2000.

Read as much as you can about your engine and car!!!

Thats why people come here "BUD". To ask questions and give help.

You can get headers and cat back by DC or Pacesetter. Cold air iintake. Both of these will be least expensive. Like this jackass says try preludepower. They get picky about searching so try the search first

Yeah, I kinda HAVE been looking around; I've seen people referring to stuff like r/s and turbo but i still don't know what r/s is or instructions on how to make a custom turbo...I'm kinda lost lol and I'm just trying to fill in all the holes about stuff I can't find.
