The 2.2 in those cars felt like a V-8 (well maybe a V-6) compared to my torqueless-wonder RSX-S.

Prelude:
Horsepower: 195 hp Max Horsepower: 7000 rpm
Torque: 156 ft-lbs. Max Torque: 5250 rpm

RSX-S
Horsepower: 200 hp Max Horsepower: 7400 rpm
Torque: 142 ft-lbs. Max Torque: 6000 rpm

Only 14 ft-lbs difference, but more was available at lower RPM.
