The problem is that the HX uses an EGR valve associated with the intake manifold so if you remove it its going to throw a code and make your car run in limp mode.

You can't use the manifold unless you want a check engine light on all the time. If you can figure out how to bypass the EGR so the ECU thinks its there on OBD2 you may be the first.

OP listen to the comments, don't install that IM on your car, you will need to bypass the EGR, and you aren't going to make that happen, so stick to the stock IM.

I think all HX's were CVT (constant velocity transmission) (ie an auto that never shifts).
