sounds great but.....

I have to ask, what will you do with the 130 wasted ponies you have going through the front wheels every time you put your foot down? FWd chassis are not designed to cope with that in any way shape or form.

Why not tune to a comfortable 260 and have an engine that will last you more than 4 weeks and actually be able to use the power? Or better yet buy something properly sporty RWD or AWD and then go for your 400 or 500. Its like putting a V8 outboard motor on a rowboat. You can do it but anyone with half an idea is going to walk away wondering why you bothered...

Or do you have a plan for controlling your front wheels?

Yes for sure that would work but could you ever come onto full boost before you ran out of gears?? :lol: :lol: :?:

Is all going through an open dif? Or do we have something special in there to handle all that power?

Interesting to see what's wrong with the engine in the 1st place. Didn't paw build it and someone up the boost with a tune and run it lean.

Random question am buying a prelude (98) that has velour seats and was wondering if I could take the leather seats from q 2001 and fit them in?

yes paw built it still running the tune they Mapped it with pretty sure piston ring has gone!
If it looks like jobby and smells like jobby it probably is jobby!
