Mugen Header Question - Honda Prelude Forum

How much longer is the JDM Mugen Header than a USDM 5th gen header? Like how much does King Motorsports hack off of it?

I have a Mugen header but i dont have the stock one to compare it to...im goin to be tightening up some bolts underneath..mostly the whole exhaust to see if that solves my rattle problem...

if you like i can measure it for you...i ll just measure from the start of the B pipe to where it bolts up to the cat???

but tomorrow..lol its too late and tomorrow im workin on the lude so ill be happy to do it for you if no one comes up with an answer

oh do you know what size sockets i would need for:

the bolts that:
the B pipe mount to(upper part of header)

the bolts that:
bolt up to the cat

IIRC the header is the piece that Honda doesn't modify other than possibly the flange. The exhaust is what makes up the difference in length between the USDM and the JDM catalyctic converters.

so anyone know the sizes??

TimeRacer · 04-16-2003, 11:43 AM

They're the same size as stock...

MugenPoweredLude · 04-16-2003, 10:12 PM

no no the size of the sockets i needed...lol its ok i already did it...theyre all tight

Timeracer is right, the flange is what is modified on the header. It won't bolt up to a stock USDM cat, you would have to run a JDM cat or test pipe i believe.

Maybe if you yell, he can hear you back in 2003.
