hey guys im in the process of buying parts for my 91 b18a civic hatch dx...so far i got aem intake,4-1 headers,2 1/2 exhaust,xs power intake manifold,neuspeed sparkplugg wires,aem cam gears,underdrive,gude ecu that redlines at 8000rpm,crower 404 cams and a ported n polished b18b head with kms dual valve springs and kms retainers...

now what i want to know is will a b18c5 type r throttle body fit my intake manifold and will it give me more horsepower or torque...i would go with skunk2 or jg but im low on budget right now...

 

yeah it will fit... and it should give you a little more air than the stock b18 tb... you will at least get better throttle response.

 

The b16a/b18c5 are plug and play, but the LS/GSR mount differently, so youd have to modify it to fit, just get something like this for your LS:

the intake manifold yes.... but the throttle bodys are the same.

 

it slides on and works perfectly, but just dont forget to port match the manifold to the TB, or else the TB wont do anything but look pretty
