If you looking for an H22 VTEC motor, it would be 97-01. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I belive 96 also has an H22 motor in it

the above thread is only for 4th gen preludes (92-96)

As for the 5th gen (97-01), they all have h22a4 (open deck) motors, with the SH, you get atts - which is a computer controlled differential that redistributes power between the drive wheels in cornering, as well as a slightly revised suspension. SH is not as good for boosting because the atts does not respond well to too much hp.
