Any thoughts on what swap would be the most stable hp for the car and cost effective?

This car WILL be turboed.

Thanks,
Jason

^Yeah, I've heard of the crv b20 swap in being successful though.

As far as honda goes, I'm just used to the f20C. I'm still learning about them b/c I am more fond of 350 small blocks and such, lol.

Has anyone put a k20 in and boosted it? I have a 10K budget.

10 K budget ? to spend on a 91 prelude? Dude.. Invest somewhere else. Talk about throwing money away. Thats what I would reccomend.

Seriously. No pun intended.

Oh, I agree 100%.

Not my car and not my money. Just easier to post that way. I'm performing this project for someone else and I was just getting some first hand knowledge from people who own the engines.


I'm just trying to make some money for my S!!!

Yeah, I told him the same thing.

He's doing the whole 'buy th car for $300 bucks and pay for the car over and over again in aftermarket parts'. Whatever floats your boat!

I might look in to an old Z project or something.
