The 1997-2001 Prelude weigh about 100lbs LESS than a 2.2/2.3CL, assuming both are 5-speed. Go out and test-drive a used prelude and see how much faster it is that your CL.

It's 50 extra hp and about the same torque. My 2.3 with bolt on's can keep up with stock and bolt on preludes to 60mph, but their 3rd gear just walks away on me.

It's not just the 50hp your paying for, it's being able to have lot of options from there. Way more parts for that engine.
