Difference between 1998 & 1999 engines?
I noticed that the 01-99 prelude is listed at 200hp versus 195hp for 98-97. What was different between the two? Any other differences between the two (trans, body, etc...)?

Most people agree that it's a marketing thing as far as power goes...
There were some changes, though. One of the main differences is the size of the main crankshaft journals.

Yeah, marketing. No difference in power has ever been found on the dyno.
Crank main change actually happened from 97-98 . . . .

sounds like your tach is off
either that or that old lady had a secret life
(i think its 5200 rpm also, not 5500)
