The Prelude engine block is so much better than the block you have in now, regardless of "special edition" Is it a manual? _____________________________ 2003 Accord LX Sedan I4| 5AT 107000 Injen SRI w/ AEM Dryflow| DCSports Ceramic Headers| DENSO IK20 Sparks| CF Front Strut Bar| Pioneer TSG950M 6x9s| Alpine SPS17C2 6.5"| C-Tek Slotted/Drilled Rotors | Progress 24mm Rear Sway Bar (in reply to casper97ASE) Post #: 2

Larger radiator, maybe some engine dress up, and don't just stay with the stock H22A, put some money into that bad boy. Even staying N/A you can push it to 300hp _____________________________ 1992 Accord EX massively modifed H22A 2.5L stroker kit GT35R turbo @ 24psi 459 whp 404 ft-lbs torque (in reply to 03Sleeper) Post #: 6
