i'm in the process of doing a build. so i have 3 different tb and i'm having a problem in chosing one out of 2 of my tb. here's the problem i own a D16z6 tb, a 95 gsr tb and a B18c tb. now i'm building my motor w/ high comp and i'm only placing a im, tb and cai just till i break in my motor then i'm going to drop in cbr600rr itbs. here's my pics w/comments/questions:
this is my D16z6 tb i have it just as a model to look at. i won't be using it.

now this is a 95 gsr tb i want to use but the exiting lil pipe from the FITV is facing forward and how can i turn it around so it faces the firewall so i can connect it to the IVAC?

now i just bought this B18c tb from e-ghey very cheap. my question is it doesn't have FITV it's more like a straight piping or a bypass. will this effect my idle on a d16a6? second it also doesn't have a vaccum piping on top of the tb which goes to the charcoal canister which means i would have to t-line another vaccum line some where so i'll have that line going to the charcoal canister? nad finally how the hell do you take off the damd TPS from another tb so i can put it on the B18c tb?

i hope i made some sense with these questions...

you sure the 2nd pic is a gsr tb? I have one but it doesn't have the two elbows on the tb.
you could put it in a vise, heat it up the fitting with mapp gas and use a set of channel lock or linesman pliers to angle it properly. i'd personally use the b18c tb. you won't have fast idle upon start up because it doesn't have a fitv. when you start your car it will idle at 750 rpm or whatever it's set at. you're in GA so you should be fine w/o it.
for the charcoal canister...remove it.
for the tps get a dremel and make a slot in the screw. use a flathead screwdriver to remove the two screws and you're set.

but if i use the B18c. i could adjust the idle from the screw? and would it still be fine w/ hi compression? 12:1. now the magic question is would i still have to remove the choarcoal canitster when i did put in the itbs?
