yeah, there is plentyof room to put a integra booster, but you have a more realistic problem. you can't just throw on a integra brake booster. you 94 civic MC will not sit right on the booster. you will have to swap out both, and being that integras came with abs and the ports on MC are in a different location, custom lines will have to be made or bent.

i have a full itr brake swap on my eg. still running stock mc and bb. pedal feel is fine and car stops on a dime. you may have other problems. plus all a brake booster does is power assist i.e. if you had a bad one then you would have to push on the brake extremely hard and brakes would not work very well. ever driven a 1960s era truck??
