Re: h22 95 civic skunk2 mani (wfo)
I ran a Skunk2 mani on my H22 w/Hasport mounts in my 93ex and i will never do it again.
I might be able to find some pictures of it, but I basically had to beat the hell out the firewall just to get the motor to bolt up to the rear mount. Then to get the intake to fit i had to move the brake lines down for that. It was a royal pain in the ***.
Not sure if anybody else had this problem but i dont recommend it. I would just port the stock one or swap it out for the euro R mani. Im pretty sure with all the H swaps on this board somebody else has had better experiences though.

Just curious , did you have to pull the motor to get that skunk 2 to fit or did you disconnect a few motor mounts and push the motor forward. How did you get it on ? I know it's a crazy tight fit

While the motor was out I installed the manifold.

we pulled the motor 2x. It was a b*tch. the 1st time the AICV hit the brake lines, the second time we broke the tps going backin. If I had to do it again, I would of relocated the lines lower , and use a mallet to make some more room for it. 1 bolt from the AICV is actulley touching the firewall.
I got more pics , that wheren't post on are build thread. LMK you you guys need them.

Re: (g0tuj0ckin)
if your motor is out. then its not a big deal. gives you a chance to clean up the firewall. If your going to try and squeeze it in. I suggest relocating as much as you can befor installing it.

Re: (g0tuj0ckin)
omg thats a tight fit. You diffenetly gotta have the motor out first before trying to install that mani. Have you guys seen good results with this ? I just dont know if it would be worth it unless you were trying to shoot for 600whp+.

Re: (93hatched_projekt)
well since we had to replace the HG. I decided to take pics to show, how tight of a fit this IM is.
Befor this gets put back together. We are going to take a hammer to the firewall to make more room. To take the head off,we had to take the headstuds (ARP) completely out. Major PITA!

Re: (93hatched_projekt)
still no vtec. 
I'm going to get a mallet and smack the firewall to make some room. then cleam it up and repaint it. see how much clearance I gain.
