Good Question
Here is a question out for you dreamerz out there:
1. I have a exellent condition 91 DX hatch [1.5/Auto] and I want to upgrade it badly. And really soon!
What should I get for the engine that would blow those idiots on the road away ?
I am thinking a Predlude engine would make a grown man cry. BUt would be a nightmare to install in my hatch.
A B18 on the other side fits in more easily. When a B16 blows d*ck but sits right in, even with my automatic!
Keep in mind that this car drives like 50miles a day.
I got good duget for this project so dont be shy. Please include apporximate prices.
2. Does anyone have a Wings West kit for 88-91 Hatchback ?
3. Does anyone have nice condition rims that would fit my 91 Dx hatch?

That Prelude 2.xxL vtech Moster
Definately the most power in that engine. Also the hardest swap.
To make any serious power to "blow" everyone's doors off you will need more than a motor swap. ex: turbo, supercharger, or n20. a super light hatch would be a nice start. Whats the 91 hatch weigh?
Putting a body kit on there will only Slow you down.

A H22B with some relocated cold air and new headers+cat would do the trick

The only question is how much that switness would cost me?
JDM H22B motor would run like $2.5-3k and that's not including the harnesses and electronics.
A convertion to a manual would run me at least $1000
