Ok decision has been made today. The prelude is being turbocharged. Any warnings or advice welcome.

Build the engine. A h22 can't handle boost. Expect real word figures too.

You won't regret it. It's epic. But ignore any figures you find on the usa forums. They are heavily over inflated I think.

You will love the torque though. It's all about the torque.
