Busted!
 
I was looking for some cams for my h22 on ebay when i stumbled upon this prelude for sale. look at the item location, then scroll down and look at the dyno sheet. It's funny the things people will do to sell cars.

Shane or Cher do you ever remember this car getting tuned at elite AND making 30 more whp AND tq than he should?

I just emailed him asking for the shop location and phone number to verify. We'll see what he says :)

It's strange the car is located in Alabama, yet was dyno'd at Elite.... I'd be interested to know if the car was sold from MN originally, or if he found the dyno sheet somewhere on the internet and didn't think people would know.

The paint job is pretty sweet in my opinion. Looks really nice :)

If you read the question and answer at the bottom of the page. he say that the car was at a car show in Wisconsin and was resently moved to Alabama. Its hard to see but it looks like the licence plates might be minnesota plates.

I missed that, thanks for pointing it out :)

doesn't matter, he wouldn't make that kinda power with an h22 and bolt-ons. when i dynoed with bolt ons i only made 170whp and 134 tq. so he stole it.

The response I got from him:

"Uhh. It's on the dyno sheet... in big bold letters. The part that says Elite Autosport with the phone number right after it. But just in case it's 612-521-0550. I doubt if they have any records but you can try. They're out of Minneapolis and if it helps, tell them they installed the VAFC-II and dynoed the car in November of 2003. It was actually on the 7th of Novmeber, at 3:01pm. That's on the dyno sheet as well. Take care and good luck!"

I remember the car, I don't remember what power it made. That dyno run is in our system under a Honda Prelude owned by someone named Frederick.

Some thing seems fishy about that. He said that the paint on the car alone was $10,000, so why would he be willing to get rid of it for a buy it now at $11,000. Then saying that it was appraised at $34,000. haha what a joke!

Because he probably didn't pay for the paint. The chromeillusion paint does cost alot of money, not sure about $11k though. There was another prelude locally that was sold to a guy in GA with that paint and if I remember correctly the paint ran about $6k. He just knows the real blue book isn't that high so probably priced it at $11k which I think is a decent price even though I'd never buy it.
