Default H2B DA In the works with same problems ( check out the new pics)

I started this project about a month ago. I just installed the h2b with a skunk2 mani. There are several problems I'm running into, for example the brake master is really close and there is no room for the Intake air temperture sensor to fit. Second problem is the throttle cable is too long!! should I use a different cable for the swap??? I'm using a crx resvoir in the brake master cyclinder to get a bit more room. I will post up some pics soon. I need help!!

So you just plugged the hole in the mani and connected the IAT sensor and let it hang?? Does harm anything?? Will it make the vehicle run lean or rich??

Leave it hanging? Are you kidding me? Put the sensor in the intake tube with a grommet. It needs to be in the intake tube

Relocating the IAT sensor is what we do in our EF H22A kit's because the IAT sensor is too close to the brake booster. Simple block off plate out aluminum and then re wire it over to the air intake tube with a groment if hole is 2 big 2 gromets The ideal IAT sensor for the relocation to air intake tube is 96+ Civic Sohc Vtec which uses the IAT sensor in the air intake tube from the factory.
