I have a H22A in my 98 lude i just wanted to know power difference and effiency differences.

 

differences as compared to what??

 

195 hp to the crank 99-01 ludes have 200 hp to the crank...answer your question

 

what makes the 5hp gain?

 

Honda's bullshit :wtf: you can't have honda's signature sport compact (pre- S2000) have a lower hp rating than the Accord V6 at the time.

 

yes many manufactures are guilty of this. for example the Sentra V-spec originally was marketed at 185HP and it only made like 140WHP. Damn 40HP drivetrain loss. Toyota though typically understates their engines.

 

automatic-195hp
manual-200hp
it is the only difference

 

honda claims "exhaust manifold design improvements" for the 5HP gain in the ludes. most preludes dyno around 165-168 WHP stock

i dont think honda over-rates HP, even in this case, hyundai likes to do that

its entirely feasable that most preludes make closer to 200HP at the crank anyway and honda made a safe bet at 190. plus honda could easily gain 5 or 10HP on the h22a/1/4 with some ECU changes. preludes run rich from the factory to begin with.
