I don't know how much your love your Prelude, but an oem cat will last you much longer than an Autozone type aftermarket one. Those only seem to last a year for me, before they get clogged up. Try to find someone parting out a low mileage Prelude and make sure that inside screen is clean and not all clogged up.

I know Honda OEM parts are more expensive, but you do get what you pay for. An OEM cat for this car is not cheap. But, you will yield better performance, fuel economy, and even exhaust and engine sound with a Honda cat versus a generic part.
The longer I work on Hondas, the more I realize the replacement parts they make for their cars really do make a difference. I never used to recomend only Honda replacement parts so strongly, but I do now.
