Hey guys,

I bought my 95 Accord Vti about 3 1/2 months ago, but i'm not too happy with it.

I was thinking of selling it, and getting a 92/93 Prelude Si (non vtec).

What you guys think?

I know that the Accord is SOHC Vtec...and I can feel a good boost after 4000rpm, but it's only decent when i'm by myself. Having 2+ppl in the car and trying to make them feel the same thing, doesn't work.

I guess my questions are:

1. does 10kW really make a difference (108 for accord, 118 for prelude)
2. when pushing the prelude si over 4000rpm, do you get any "boost"?
3. is it worth the trouble?

gonna post this in prelude thread...so i dun get one sided answers!

A manual prelude Si would easily outrun any accord...so if your looking for zap get a prelude..obviously the VTIR would be the better choice

A VTiR will only be 12-13 these days, id say if u already have the accord, save for a bit longer and get better value for money.

Cars dont have to have vtec to get higher acceleration rates in the higher Rev's....
