Default intake manifold clearance question


So I'm in the process of pretty much redoing the whole car and came across an issue I didn't do much research on prehand. So I have a f20b that I'm building for a turbo and since I have a s2 manifold from my prelude I didn't want to purchase a new one. Anyways I'm told the proportioning valve will need to be relocated. Now I have the option of replacing brake and fuel lines with OEM parts. But if relocation is required I'm going to make my own and run it inside the body. Anyone have any experience that can shed some light into my problem? Also running with a itr booster and master

Yes you should have to relocate it. I'm assuming you are using an H/F series tranny. I'm running an H swap in my EJ8 with the Skunk 2 mani and relocated mine

Good choice. There will only be a few mm of fire wall clearance. you will also need to cut off the threaded studs from the firewall

Thanks going to do a minor wire and line tuck just to clean everything up in there. Everyday a little bit of progress happens. I'm just sanding down the subframe and changing the steering rack right now.
