Not your usual chassis of choice...
Recently worked on a local car that I thought some of you guys would like.
Pretty much puts the sleeper in 'sleeper'
.
Very clean and taken care of, and from the outside, you would never guess that it would hand most cars thier ***.
Your 'standard' H22, pistons, rods, and a gt30
HT might frown on a such a 'small' turbo for a H22, but in reality, its perfect for a fun daily driver that can pull stumps at anywhere in the rev range. Anytime you tip into the throttle, it spools.....and makes some serious TQ.
Dustin might recognize it from the engine bay, its a 90 Prelude.
I didnt take many pics, but I did have my vid cam w/ me

The Evo was stock turbo on 30psi w/ meth injection.
The GTO was an LS2 @ 11:1 (Owner said he shaved the heads) and some fatty loping cams that sounded Really ------- good.
All in all, its pretty sweet to roll into 5th on the freeway have 370ft-lbs on tap.
I really liked working on this car, not your standard gutted EG.
