from the dealership all 4th gen VTEC's were rated at 190hp to the flywheel. I have no idea where you got 180 from.

when the vtec's first came out they where rated at 180 hp the 94 is when every thing changed the tach some body work like the vents and when it had the 195 hp not all 4th gen's are the same hp at flywheel

Nope, USDM VTEC's were rated at 190hp.

Says so in my 1993 Dealer Brochure book.

What book are you talking about exactly? I've seen a few mechanics/performance hand books that have been totally off. I think I remember seeing one that said the SI had 140hp and the VTEC had 170 or something like that.

. Don't go by any of those books.

That has to be the stupidest thing I have ever heard. Do you even own a prelude? Go take your moms mini-van back and come talk to us IF you ever get one. H23 weak

My H23 would rape anything you got!
