Just going to copy the good bits out of my build thread on PreludeUK, everyone seems to be moving to this forum as PUK seems dead as door nails. I'll try and keep it as short as possible and i would to apologise in advance of the amount of pictures.

Spec:
Well basically, its a 2000 BB8 VTi Prelude in Crystal Silver, Manual with usual extras.

AEM V2
16" accord euroR alloys
Blacktrax IM
70mm TB
AEM fuel Rail
AEM Fuel pressure regulator
Custom De-cat
Mugen Twinloop Catback Exhaust





This is how the car was when i purchased it

Image

First thing that i did was got rid of the ugly standard number plate bracket and replaced it with JDM number plate titler along with a JDM style Plate! :D

Image

Image
Image
Image
Image

This is when i left the car into get the front and back bumpers sprayed with the lip kit put on. Had the rear lights changed from the clear/lexus style to the standard ones. It was also lowered (cut springs) with the 17" rims which unfortunately got destroyed because of my lack of focus when driving.

I love your Euro Accord alloys. They suit the prelude very well. :D

Its an good quality Inlet manifold from the states. I bought it off a fella on PUK who got it from the states. He was planning on building a 1000bhp prelude. I think mine is either a Stage2 or Stage3, although when i was getting it fitted i was told that it had been ported and polished.

Difference from standard is that it looses the IAB's, replaced with spacers which Blacktrax supply. When i had it fitted i lost torque at the low rev range, but in vtec i noticed a bit more torque. Once the ECU is upgraded then i can tell you the difference. Visit http://www.blacktrax.net/products/IntakeManifolds.html for more detailed info

Thanks guys!
