    I'd say Lovefab only because I haven't heard of maximworks or seen there quality or a dyno graph on a prelude.

    ok just got this from my source the diametres of the pipes for the maximworks headers are the following:

    "The diameters of the pipes are 45mm-->50.8mm-->60.5mm 4-->2-->1 system.."

    They are big. That works out to be 1.75" > 2" > 2.5". What bolt ons do you have? If you have the standard manifold you won't see much more gain over a smaller set of headers.

    As a refernce on the Hi-Comp drag car the car made no more power with the custom headers of 1.75" > 1.875" > 3" over the standard headers with 2.5" exhaust with stock inlet manifold and ported head. But when we fitted the quads the difference was 13kw to the bigger custom headers and it made more power everywhere and made more for longer.

    It sounds like you have a similar setup apart from the quads so that should give you some idea.

    If you end up wanting to put a skunk2 IM on, I have one I'm gonna sell. I was gonna use it but decided not to.

    Further to what I posted above Joe's car made 145kwatw at 8,300rpm. And over 3,200Nm of tractive effort. Thats with a 4.7FD.

    Send me a PM and I'll discuss it further with you if you like.
