i mean 2 second search

Visually in stock form the s has 14" wheels with hub caps. It has no front lip. It has no power locks. Like peter said when you look at the engine the S will have a f22a1 sohc motor.

The si in stock form will have 15" rims. It will have a front lip. It will have power locks. The motor will be a h23a1 dohc. The SI also has ABS.

Alarm= Viper

exhaust is your choice. go to youtube and listen to all the exhaust on your model prelude.

Well im more of a stock sound kinda gal. I like to actually hear VTEC, But I guess if I had to choose one I would go with either a apexi or a buddy club. my boyfriend has a apexi, its not to obnoxious. Exhaust for the 1992-1996 Honda Prelude | Password JDM

If it's a 4th gen Si (which I'm guessing that's what you have), it's an H23. S is a F22. There's no B-series engine code in the 4th gen line, unless you're mixing this with the chassis code, which for an Si, it's a BB2.

Yes under windshield its a bb2

BTW, you can do a search for exhaust sounds, and there's a number of people that have posted various types.
