well.................turbo charging would be the best way to get there; however, you're gonna be looking at completely buidling up the engine for 500hp. Rods, Pistons, Crank, Sleves are a mucst!!!!! Hasport mounts, axle and mid-shaft kit, upgrade your suspension, brakes, fuel system, Hondata or ZDyne to tune it. For Zdyne your car would have to be OBD-0 and you'd have to invest in an atmosphereic pressure switch. Then if you want to do it right you'll need an LSD of some sort, prefferably Quaife, traction bars, upgraded clutch and pressure plate, and a nice solid set of shift linkage. (we haven't even gotten into the turbo shit yet. ) then just select a turbo that would suit your needs, and nice FMIC, TIAL waste gate, Greddy Type-R BOV, 3" charge pipes, a nice DRAG manifold, turbo exhaust system, then have plenty of money and time set aside for someone to tune it and dyno time.

Yeah....that car isn't looking too good right now. You might want to try something else. Don't get me wrong...it can be a good project car and you can learn a few things from it but if you want 500 HP you are definately going to need a different car to work with.

There is not enough aftermarket support for the 91 ludes... No internals,no transmission parts, no suspension, nothing... at least that I have seen... I would get a different car....
