Default i have 2 questions...1st is abt lowering and 2nd is abt the engine bay etc,

alright i was wondering if you lower your car with coil overs, does it help to reduce wheel hop ?

and then 2nd question is will it hurt if i run my clutch cable around in the back of the intake manifold to give the engine bay a little cleaner look? and where can i mount my map sensors at? just dont like where it mounted on the firewall. and also last thing will it hurt if i take out my charol casiter since my place dont have emissons? i know it has to be vented and such, so what should i do and what about the vaccum hoes that on there?

Many people run the clutch cable below the intake manifold and have no issues.
I have mine down there and haven't run into any problems.

For map sensor you could get a throttle body that has the map sensor built onto it.
Then you can completely ditch the firewall MAP.

I would leave the canister on. It's not hurting anything being there is it?

Save your money on coil overs and buy real springs. You will save your self alot of money. I had just bought brand new OEM struts for my CRX and blew them in about 9 months. I my self have H&R springs on my car and love them. Just my thoughts.

If you have a D16A6, then no, you have no option. A 92-up intake manifold will fit any D or B series throttle body with a MAP sensor. (most all OBD1 or OBD2 throttle bodys have MAPs on the throttle body).

Good time to upgrade to a Y8 manifold if you want to use a TB based MAP Sensor
