Default 92-95 Civic firewall *PIC* - What can be removed for K20a2 swap?

Trying to clean up the bay. Going to be removing most of the parts for paint, but would like to know what I can permanetly remove before dropping in the K20A2.

A = Opening for A/C lines to enter cabin
B = Opening for coolant lines to enter cabin
C = Fuel filter (keep unless running an inline filter)
D = Charcoal canister (can be REMOVED)
E = Brake booster vacuum line (REMOVE: will need new hose w/k20a2)
F = (2) EGR valves (only found in D15Z1 / VX bays) (REMOVE)
G = Fuel return line (REMOVE: will need new hose w/k20a2)

--Can holes "A" or "B" be used to run the wiring or must you drill a new hole? I'm doing a wire tuck w/ fuse box relocated to under dash.
--What is the part I have marked with the blue box "F"? What about "E"?
--What is the hose marked in red "E"?
--Do you guys keep the charcoal canister "D"?

Thanks for helping a nQQb

you can use "B" to run the harness into your car, "A" wont look so good

"F" im not sure never seen one before
"E" is your Vacuum booster lone that goes to your IM
you can toss the canister

"C" you will need your fuel filter for the swap

F is def not for EGR. NO and i mean NO 92-95 civic came with a EGR valve.
from the looks i think this a civic 4 door. because the 4 doors came with map sensor mounted on the firewall.. thats the box a map sensor usually comes in.

G is a fuel return

Should have posted what car this is: 95 VX

I'll look through the helms for the EGR / map sensor to see if that's it

Thanks guys for the help!!

i see you have a h22 hatch go look on your motor and see how the egr system is setup then explain to me why the egr valve would go to the firewalll

You are corect

Page 11-9 of my Helms:

Control Box (D15Z1 engine only)

Inside the box on the left is the EGR Vacuum control valve and on the right is the EGR control solenoid valve.
