At first: Welcome to the europe forum!! Feel free to ask whatever you want.
Iīve just bought a `00 VTEC Prelude but I donīt have got any idea about your question.
Over here in germany we have got three different 5th gen Prelude engines:
2.0i SOHC non-VTEC with 133hp and manual tranny
2.2i DOHC VTEC with 185hp and auto tranny
2.2i DOHC VTEC with 185hp (200hp in the y2k) and manual tranny
By the way, where are you from?
