Default D16Y8 manifold help......already searched

So i finally got my Y8 manifold and i get the swap info from that website everyone posts on how to do the swap...Well on the part where they seal those ports on the back of the manifold confuses me because mine are closed off.....you can take a look at some pics at this site (go to D16Y8 album ) http://community.webshots.com/user/hondaae83. So what do i need to seal up then?

Also to those who have done this swap, is it really worth it or is there hardly a difference. My motor isnt stock, i have I/H/E so will i feel a better difference then say if it were stock?

Man a lot of people dont fully read!!!! I have already been to that site....as i already stated in my first post. Next as i again stated in my first post that they are sealing the IAC location, except on mine it seems to have been sealed already, like it looks like thats how it came from Honda. So if that is closed off (YOU CAN LOOK AT THE PICS IN THAT LINK ) is there any other parts that need to be closed off?

Still searching for comments on the performance also of this manifold.

well the question was already answered. I bought the 5psd model for my automatic. Im going to use the IACV off the y8 manifold and just loop the hose to solve the vaccum line.

you will definately notice a jump in acceleration.

Okay, as stated, you have an auto 99-00 intake manifold. If you were local I'd toss it on for 50 bucks. As far as performace goes, it's definately a step up from the Y7 intake mani. When I put this intake mani on my car (97 hatchy) I just JB welded the hole shut and it's been fine. Just let it cure for 24 hours before you put it on. If you have any specific questions and decide to do it yourself pm me or something.
