Stock exhaust diameter is 2.0". The only Prelude to have any larger was the Type-S with 2.25". Either way you'll be fine.

The thing to remember with any performance Honda is they all make ~95+ BHP/Litre. Therefore to make any meaningful gains the mods have to be well thought out & compliment each other.

Pointless modifying an intake of you aren't going to do the exhaust for example...

Also you only ever get what you pay for- if you aren't prepared to shell out then don't expect any real improvements in power.

Lol you lucky guy all im saying is that thry are very rare. When i bought my first lude, there were plenty and my first one was fully loaded aswell.

True say guys. My first mod will be exhaust with remap should set me back 1.5k then tb and im then cams. Then next year a turbo

Will i have to get the engine rebuilt for a turbo? Whats the max bhp these h22 engines can take?

I've seen turbo'd H22s running 700hp, but that has been a big price tag on the build, and that was in the states where parts are generally a lot cheaper there than here.

To run around 300 bhp will i need to rebuild the engine or can the engine handle it

Plus my old lude: http://www.ludegeneration.co.uk/prelude ... 13185.html

300 bhp+ turbo will need new pistons and sleeved block minimum (well, if you want it to last longer than a month, anyway!)
Not sure how much the standard rods can take?
