Hello my name is christian and im pretty new to the import thing
lol i grew up with muscle cars and rat rods i own a 1991 Chevy
short bed step side ...and a 2001 Honda Prelude vtec first car
ever! and is freakn awsome i was wanting to know how hard
modifying it would be.... its a automatic and is lowered and i
put dual mufflers out the back there not true duals but i think
they look sick and it sounds ok to me but idk lol and has a
intake im relocting the battery to the trunk soon so my hks
mushroom filter will fit..the first think i really want to do is
but a turbo on this badboy and was wanting some advice on if its
hard or not worth doing the car is not quick of the line and
want it to go faster but still be safe enough for my wife to
drive without breaking down

Preludes are awesome cars. On that note everything looks great
except for the fact that the exhaust looks like it belongs on a
90's pickup or suburban, not a Honda. Either put them straight
out the back, or just leave it as a single on one side, not
angled.
As for mods to the prelude, there is a lot you can do. A buddy
in WI had a built prelude, as in built motor, jackson racing
super charger, nitrous, headers, etc...etc... Made just over 450
WHP. It was a beast, but it was not cheap either. There is a lot
of simple bolt on things that will make the car that much more
fun to drive without being too expensive though. Just keep it
clean, de-rice, and you should be good. First thing though,
switch up that exhaust!
Again, this is just my opinion, and it is your car, do with it
as you please!
Welcome aboard! 8)

Welcome Welcome! I kinda like the preludes. Always looks like
they could use a bigger motor though...

What else are you looking for? Topspeed has a ton of prelude
stuff. What is wrong that you are getting online?
Oh and Welcome!

check with topspeed performance. And if you need tools etc, some
guy came to me last night and handed me a card for a shop in
lewisville that lets you rent out their shop and tools for 25$
an hour.
