Wikipedia is wrong?

IIRC the only other Prelude that came with a red rocker cover bar the H22A8 was the S-spec/TypeS H22A... if I'm not mistaken the TypeS engine wont fit in any other Prelude and you'd be lucky to find an S-Spec engine I think. It's most likely that someone has just put a red rocker cover on a regular H22A (in which case, good luck I guess?).

But yes, Wikipedia is still wrong... because the H22A was actually 197 (except in a very limited number of models much later on in its life)

Not strictly true.

Don't forget the Accords

What accords?

Thanks Donald

The JDM Accords of the same era as the 4th gen. The EuroR, although this is a lot later.

I'm sure you'll say these don't count though.

So are you saying there were jdm Accords at the same time as the 4th gen, that had H22A's and were putting out more than 197bhp? And that the Euro R had the higher output H22A as found in the type-s and s-spec Ludes?

EuroR is 217 and the JDM Accords are in the 180s IIRC, so not exactly as I mentioned in my first post, but Prelude-wise unless the H22A is in the TypeS or S-Spec then it is 197.

Yup Euro-R's put out the same power as an ATR, they have a red top H22A, no number designation unlike the H22A7.

RE the SiR coupes and wagons that are the same age as 4g ludes - they seem to be black top H22A's so I'd guess 197 if I had to. There were SiR saloons but I think they had F20B's, and put down 180 and 200PS depending on if they were Auto's or manuals... If you're being pedantic a manual is an SiR-T. The F20B was in the 6th gen Accord though and I can't say I've seen a 5th gen SiR saloon so couldn't say what lump was in it for sure, might be an H series like the 5th gen coupes and wagons. I'm starting to lose track of where I'm going with this now though

The Wagons are 190PS IIRC.
