Default Y8 IM onto A6

I'm wondering if anyone can point me towards a write up on the best way to put a y8 IM on an A6. I've searched around, but can't find anything good. Also if you guys have any tips to make it easier or problems that I should make sure to avoid I'd love to hear them. Thanks.

it's pretty much bolt on.

There's one temp sensor on the back of the A6 that you can leave plugged in and just zip tie it to the Y8 (what I did). And you'll have to extend or re-route the wire for the MAP sensor. HTH and good luck

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by EF-Honda.com Knowledge Base &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">Any throttle body for a H series B series or D series are interchangeable, with one catch, you need to pay attention to where your IACV (idle air control valve) is. For example, the D16Y8 (96-00 EX) has different mounting points. On the automatic, the IACV is mounted on the throttle body and the manual has the IACV mounted on the back of the intake </TD></TR></TABLE>

Y8 manifold is very good for use with turbo imo

Hell, it's good for everything on the SOHC. It is as they say "The Type-R manifold for SOHC" with it's design
