I have 4 point scalemail armor. Can a helm bumb it up to five? I know its locked at four. For some reason I feel that helms should or could bumb armor rating up because they make combat so much harder.

Yes, the helm is an independent bonus to the armor.

You can't ever get more than the Maximum Armor Points for a given type of armor. The helm bonus isn't an exception.

Grix is correct:
The helm bonus, along with superior appearance and superior construction apply to all armors, but there is nothing in the rules that allows you to bump past the maximum armor value for the type.
