Rep Power: 0 base - 200hp/156 lb-ft (at the flywheel) 168hp/143 lb-ft (at the wheel)
stats from Sport Compact Car October 2000
type SH - same power but equipped w/ ATTS (Active Torque Transfer System) which applies torque to outside tires during hard turn to reduce understeer
J-spec type S - 220hp, not in US
*and the H22 engine that they use all have vtec i believe, maybe not the base but i still think its equipped w/ vtec*

Rep Power: 303 yup in the US....only 2 trims with prelude....the base and SH type
both with same hp/torque......SH Type has better suspension wise.....SH= Super Handleing
same power but equipped w/ ATTS (Active Torque Transfer System) which applies torque to outside tires during hard turn to reduce understeer......100% of the avaliable torque will tranfer to the outside tire.....to counter the outside force of the car when making the turn

We go up for canyon drives and that thing can handle.
But from what I have read and heard autox'ers prefer the base model over the SH. I think ATTS was Hondas failed attempt at a new form of LSD. Why else would they not have it on other models? Someone please explain?
