my friend keeps bragin about his friend who has a prelude. the guy claims that he can hit 140mph on stock internals. the only mod is and intake. that sounds like bull shit but i could just be my hate for 4bangers (i don't know if this is the place to post this queston but who cars)

I am sure it can get to 140, its not like he's going to get there particularly fast. I don't know if it is limited or not though.

it's gear limited. and a bonestock 5th gen prelude can reach 140mph. when i had my lude i maxed at 151mph according to the speedo. but then the accuracy of the speedo is iffy that high up. but it is capable of 140mph. it creeps up there after 125 or so but it can get up to those levels.

oh yeah, and let's move this into the prelude forum as there hasn't been any comparison to other cars.

it's cool to hate 4 bangers but just to forewarn you that you may and probably will have other members disagree with you.

let's keep a level-headed discussion. that means everyone who participates in this thread.

Yeah they can definitely get up there, like everyone else said though, it's not gonna fly up to those speeds. As far as hating 4 bangers, to each his own, but I continue to ask why? Do you hate 4 bangers, or is it the stupid ricer stereotype that we Honda drivers get slapped on us? And I wouldn't hate a particular type of engine either, I'd hate the car it was in. And not all 4 bangers are slow...there is a replacement for displacement...it's called forced induction.

yea i should have been more specific. when i say 4banger i mean ricers. (big wings and can mufflers)

i have to admit there are tons out there that are fast, but all the ones in my town have no performance upgrades just visuals. Iam not trying to start a big argument, iam just stating my opinion.

yes yes we all hate "all show no go"
an SH lude is a actually a very fast car stock.

i wouldnt go around saying i hit 140 though, it leaves the sent of bull shit in the air.

Had my 92 Prelude Si clocked while I was down at Road Atlanta a few years back (A friend of mines dad works as an official for the SCCA there and let us sneak out onto the track) I topped out at 153mph, all I had done at that point was the header, air intake, exhaust sans cat., and fuel management.

were you red lineing?
