Default Put a SH prelude back in his place

It was actually one of my boys, he drives a 2000 honda prelude SH w/ intake so far Anyway, a while back he whooped up on me in the same truck except I had a little problem where my injectors werent all the way in my manifold so naturally he won (about three months ago). Well, I look like a jackass cause the only thing I could say is, "your lucky my truck isnt running right" (I didnt know the injectors where the problem until the SES light came on two weeks later )and he's looking at me laughin his *** off while saying, "yeah, sure sure". So I see his *** today, luckily, and guess what...my truck is in good running shape now So he pulls up laughin still from the last time, honks the horn and we both do the hey whats up bs talk yada yada yada. Then he says, "So...you ready for that rematch" ME: "I thought you'd never ask" So we're still rolling next to each other and at about 40MPH we both punch it. I didnt drop into first gear, it hit second, so I didnt really pull on him that hard at all but he didnt go anywhere either, but I was ahead enough so he had to get behind me to avoid the car in front of him. Well, the light ahead turns red and his lane is open since I'm passed the car that he had to stop for, so I hop over and give him my lane. Now were at the light waitin for the green He looks over and smirks at me and says "you didnt change anything right?" (cause last time he smoked me pretty bad, and this time he couldnt even pull on me from a roll ) I said, " nope, I just fixed that injector problem I told you I had and thats it". So we're waiting... waiting... waaaaaiting... BLING!, the light hits and I'm GONE. I barely chirped tires and put about a truck between us in first gear, then second gear hit and there was no chance in hell. I was at the next light and about half way through the intersection before he could get into the turn lane Sorry so long but you had to get the full story

That's cool, some of those Preludes are pretty quick. My buddy used to have one that had a header and a different intake manifold maybe a couple of other things, I'm not sure. I am sure that the car would run a high 14 no problem, no nitrous or turbo all motor. Used to keep up pretty well with my truck when I had less mods.

Theres a good chance your in the low 15's now blackrado... bc i bet his car is good for about 16 flat or so and you put it to him bad enough for you to have at least 8 tenths on him or more.

I hope so, low 15's would be pretty good for this measly setup I have now. I cant wait to do my swap
