The H22 (prelude) is 60mm at the throttle plate while the F22 (Accord) has a 55mm (54.75mm) throttle plate.

Why on earth did you do that?

The Accord TB is much much smaller. You're restricting yourself now.

i had changed the intake manifold for the usdm one, its a 97-2001 manifold and this one has a breather in the back of it, to what vacuum that one goes to? if i block it the engine acts like if its going to turn off. the book says that it goes to the iab sensor but im running the engine with a tuned p28.i don't think is going to read it.oh and what kind of suspention should i use for this accord wagon,i put new gr-2 shocks on it with tein springs and the ride suckt bad they blew up quick.

So you need an internal coil distributor cap.

I'm not 100% if it will fit but the 92 Prelude SI VTEC (H22A1) Honda part number 30102-PT3-A12 is an internal coil (4 wire) H series distributor.

If you know the right people (cough cough) the IAB circuit can be added to the P28. Then they can be added & activated in most OBD1 tuning software.
