hi i have a 97 prelude base, it has a stock h22a4 at them moment, i have banked up a few bolt ons and such and would like to know what i can expect from what i have. anyone that can give an educated guess as to what kinda power i can expect after a tune would be appreciated. here is a list of the parts i have so far, i am still not 100% complete and i will also list the parts that are still in the works. fyi i am planning on an n/a build

the car has 120k on it and i am sure the motor is original, it doesnt smoke or anything to lead me to believe that my ringlands are in bad shape. also pulls strong stock

parts i have:

port and polished h22 head with all supertech internals including high comp. black nitride coated forged valves, springs, titanium retainers

custom ground stage 3+ all motor cams, the reason i say + is because the lift on these cams are larger than bc stage 3 cams

skunk2 pro series intake manifold

rc 440cc injectors

obx fuel pressure regulator

aem v2 prelude specific cold air intake

dc 4/2/1 header

skunk2 test pipe

skunk2 megapower exhaust system

obx aluminum underdrive pulley

parts i need:

aem fuel rail

70mm throttle body (skunk2)

p28 chipped ecu

odb2-odb1 conversion harness

255lph fuel pump

adjustable cam gears

i am keeping the bottom end stock until i find a new block i can sleeve and have machined then i will probably in the future run a turbo setup but that will probably be a good while. so i plan on sticking with n/a for a long time. so any help with something i might be missing that is need and any rough estimates of hp and whp would be great thanks for your time

later

huh? lol

153whp

12.3wtq

I Love (.)(.)

I may be wrong....but I think a stock piston and that big of a cam you will have piston valve contact..

droe2001

how do you figure it would only be 153whp, the h22a4 is rated at 200 with drivetrain loss stock i would think it would be 160+ at the wheels, thats just my guess, would just like to know how i would lose power over stock, please explain your reasoning, haha

piston valve clearence i thought about but didnt think there would be a problem with stock i was worried about a higher compression piston, i do plan on claying it before install though, im sure your probably right anything that can cost me more money is gonna show its ugly face

Jesus...pay $50, get dyno.

I Love (.)(.)

aside from piston valve contact, there is no point in running a stage 3 cam on a stock piston in the first place. with a stage 3 all motor cam, you are going to need more compression

i plan on getting dyno tuned as soon as the dyno opens in bedford and they find a honda tuner that knows his shit, just asking for a few educated guesses, i guess lord humongous would have to be educated in order to participate in this one, sorry
