keep in mind...prelude SH is 210 at the CRANK...at the wheels a prelude is rated between 160-175 i believe....i know some people have said the TL-S is around 190...hard to believe but still...the tl-p is what..180? it should be an even match...0-60 Lude times are around high 7's for a 5spd model....type S' are high in the 6's...wish i could get a G Tech Pro to read the hp and times on my baby...

Bench-racer...

And what's so hard to believe about a Type-S putting down 190 at the wheels?

02-03 TL-P 5 speed Auto +/-

Accord has more HP , but less torque and also high RPM
I raced my friends 04 Accord Coupe V6 Auto with my ex-2000 TLP. I was beating him till 65-70 mph then after that he started gaining on me and passed me with no problem. Also I had 95K on my car and his was brand spankin new. I was proud of my TL P. Now that I have a Type S he has no chance... Not only am I proud of the Type S, I LOVE it.
