i, just like everyone else, NEED more power. ok as you prolly know, this thing has a 1.8 with a carb. i think they call it an ek1, but anyway, it has a 2 barrel carb. i know, in 84, the prelude had a 1.8 with a 3 barrel. do ya'll think i could swap mine for the 3 barrel cuz i believe the prelude had the same head but im not sure. and if that won't work, what else will? swap? to what? i promise this thing is gonna be on t.v. within 6 months if i can just make it faster... it might be on the news, but you'll see it. lol. i just need a little help, cuz everyone seems to have forgotten what an amazing car the 83 is. i'm pretty sure it was the first jap. car built in america. i heard somewhere that they built the sedans in the u.s and the hatches in jap.. this car was like kurt cobain to the car industry! started an automotive revolution for sure.
