Genuine Honda, although I have had a Quinton Hazel fitted before now, but probably didn't run the car long enough to truly test it.

best is OEM :)
i took my one off at 100k+ miles and replaced it - the replacement one had smaller impellers so i wasnt pleased but fitted it anyway :cry:
had a look at the oem one when i took it off and there was nothing wrong with it - probably would still be going today if id left it on :twisted:
Blueprint is other the make that springs to mind
having said that im sure ones by first line, solid auto or others at half the price might be just as good but id want to compare them side by side.
hope this helps :lol:

Blueprint. Exact copy of OEM. Compared it to @vanzeps old one.
