I know the K's are fairly new, but people are going nuts with them..
Honestly, I have yet to hear of a good/realiable boosted H.

The point is.. H-Series + Boost = short life expectancy.
Numbers like what?
- The fact that any "R" badge bone stock is the best that Honda sells? (What does the Prelude have? The SH? What a joke!)
- The fact that the 92-96 USDM H22A only makes 200hp @ 6800 where the 98 USDM ITR made 195hp @ 7800?
- The fact that the B18C5 makes 108hp per liter where the H22 only makes 90hp per liter? (not even going to mention the JDM motors)
- The fact that the 5th gen Prelude weights in 3100lbs verus the 2700lb of the ITR? (ever heard of HP to weight ratio?)
- The fact that the aftermarket never REALLY supported the H motor, or chassis for that matter?
- The fact that there's a whole SHIT TON of JDM parts that you can buy? (if you're that type)
- And finally, the fact that both cars are rated under NADA for the same miles and options came out to be the same price?
So I guess the question a performance wanna be should be asking is...Why a prelude over a ITR? If the answer is anything like pimp points...then you're barking up the wrong tree.
The Prelude is a great car! It really is, just not to make fast.

Thanks for the effort though!
