I'm just looking for a good aftermarket manifold , as when I look at the original 5th gen prelude one just looks so restrictive :lol:

Go My Profile>My Control Panel>Profile tab then select correct generation.

As said Hytech replica such as the PLM or a Fujitsubo etc... Although I wouldn't bother fitting a new exhaust manifold or another engine mod unless you are going to get a tunable ECU. 5th gens do not respond to basic mods as well as 4th gens do (OBDII Vs OBDI).

That was tried by Mills but it didn't work.

I think the best/only option for a 5th gen is to use a P28, P30, P72 etc...

It is pretty much an OEM SS copy so no need for remapping etc.. I had one of these on my first Prelude. It rusted up after 6 months but didn't give me any trouble.
