Dude,

take the entire engine, from the end of the exhaust manifold to the tip of the throttle body. You'll need that throttle cable so take it too. DO NOT REMOVE IT FROM THE INTAKE. Take the clutch cable as well. I think all mine were too damn short between the rubber ball and the adjustment. Get it to be safe. You need the alternator, and if you plan on running A/C you'll have to take that as well.

Be sure that you are removing a complete drivetrain that includes a transmission as well.You don't want to be running from here to there to find a flywheel that will hold the clutch that your transmission needs.


Buy yourself a GOOD mount kit and prepare to pay for a decent exhaust. Don't do the ghetto **** like I did and run a cut off integra exhaust that exits under the car. It sounds pretty fab, but it is annoying as heck.

Good luck on your install. Post pics to show us how well it turned out.
