If you could use either/or H22 USDM transmission's (M2Y4 or M2F4) which would you recommend over the other and why? (used with the H22A engine)

M2Y4 97-01 Prelude BASE
3.285
1.956
1.344
1.034
0.812
4.266

M2F4 92-96 Prelude VTEC
3.307
1.950
1.360
1.071

Well, at 7800 rpm with 23.5" tires, the only major difference is 4th and 5th gear.

M2F4: 38.7 - 65.6 - 94.0 - 119.4 - 147.0
M2Y4: 38.9 - 65.3 - 95.1 - 123.6 - 157.5

Speed in mph. The 97-01 tranny will be a bit nicer on the highway. 1-3 will be hardly noticable. I'd probably rock the newer trans since it's virtually the same through the 1-4 gears and just a bit longer 5th for cruising.

EDIT: Engine speed @ 70 mph in 5th:

M2F4: 3750
M2Y4: 3500

Not a big difference though.
