First there was no VTEC engine available in 1992 in the US. Only the H23. The H23 engine is NOT the VTEC engine, its a regular N/A engine, making ~160 hp, and 130tq. The H23 is not a good candidate for "high rev-ing" applications (such as slapping a VTEC head on,) but it is a decent engine for turbo charging. There is no supercharger commercially available for the H23.

Unless he has done a swap and put an H22 in the car. Then it has VTEC.

Handling wise the EF hatch is lighter, with a shorter wheel base, so it is more tossable than a Prelude, the 'Lude is longer, heavier, with poor weight distribution, making it understeer or harder to turn. I drive a 92 4WS in autocross, and regularly lose to guys in EF si HBs.

How old are you? Your typing sucks, and have some patience before you start bumping.
