    Default What engine should I swap in my 91 prelude si?

    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.
