Would A 6 2.5,stick shift be able to have a chance against a prelude SR?
PRELUDE?

Well even with a blower, if its a new prelude (3rd gen i believe)will still run you pretty good. Have you had your car dynoed yet. You'll probably beat him off the line but then again I beleive the prelude is lighter. What do MX6's weigh. I know probes weigh in at a hefty 2900lbs. If its an older prelude you should walk him pretty easily.

A supercharged 6? That's gonna destroy the prelude!
WELL, if you got that supercharged 6 running right, I think you'll freakin' annialate him! Shit man, what are your times? 0-60, and a 1/4 mile?
I wouldn't be afraid of any thing, especially a prelude!! What psi are you running?
Start talking man. Did you build up the bottom end of the motor?

I don't know. If the TKT blower kit is actually on the car, and done right, that V6 should be putting 220HP to the wheels. Unless the Prelude is blown as well, he'll be putting in the 165HP range to the wheels. In this configuration, the Prelude will not stand a chance.joshrea said:Well even with a blower, if its a new prelude (3rd gen i believe)will still run you pretty good.

Put a blower (turbo, say) on the 'Lude and all bets are off again.
WTF is wrong with you people. A stock LS could hang with a Prelude SH. It would all come down to the driver and their launch. Like most hondas, the Prelude doesnt have so much torque so its slow in the first few gears. But if you are a supercharger, wtf, you will destroy it.
Well I used to own a 92 prelude Si which is the same as a Prelude SR, as I understand it the SR is just the foregin version of the Si. The SR is not vtec. It has 160hp and 156 lbs/ft. But just because it isn't a vtec doesn't mean it is slow, I beat many new prelude sh's in my 92. The older prelude like mine (the 4th gen 92-96) is lighter and quicker than the new 5th gens. A superchargered MX6 though, may have the advantage. Hard to say. Depends what the prelude has under the hood for mods. I have never seen a MX6 with a supercharger run so I have no idea how quick they are.
Oh, you can check out the page on my prelude:

Good luck!

HELLO?
Would someone please, Please, PLEASE listen to Roach and Mike94PGT? An MX-6 with a blower puts 220HP to the wheels. The TKT webpage claims that is like 265 or 275 at the flywheel. My friend has a 92 Prelude Si (5 speed) and it's nothing to write home about. Not that the MX-6 is a rocket, but I've pulled away from him before like nothing. I've read that a turboed MX-6 will do high 13's for 1/4 mile with 6 pounds of boost (http://hometown.aol.com/mx6perform/turbo.htm ). I don't know how the new prelude and new eclipse compare on 1/4 times, but I know they have about the same HP and my friend's slightly modded 2000 Eclipse V6 only runs a 15.1. What I'm saying is that an Mx-6 with forced induction will have no problems with a NA Prelude.

Yeh, like I said a PGT or LS are very comparable to a few cars:
2000 Eclipse GT
1st and 2nd gen GSTs (as long as they dont up the boost)
Prelude SH
Civic SI
those guys are all pretty close in terms of the 1/4 mile and are primarily determined by the driver. Now add a turbo or supercharger and you will walk anyone of those in stock form.

I didn't install it but the guy who put it in at a perfomance shop said that it was putting out 9psi or something,I raced it at grand bend motorplex(Dragstrip)And ran a 13.99/92mph.I just don't know how fast the new preludes really are.Do you think I can beat him?
Holy shit. You run in the 13s? email me all your mods man.. [email protected]
Every last one.
a Prelude does mid 15s.. so you would be about 15 cars ahead of him.. lol
