Default new member with a swap question

the car, 89 wagovan, manual
the swap, y7 motor and intake mani, b16 TB, obd0 SI dizzy and injectors.
i will be customizing the stock dpfi air chamber box that sits on top of the stock TB to fit on the b16 TB. the idea is to keep it looking as stock as possible. here are my questions...

the tb im using


the intake im using


the air chamber



now, where would i put an idle air control valve? i relocated the intake air intake temp sensor to the air chamber before the TB.i have to have the stock throttle cable modified. but would it be eisier to convert to obd2? because i would REALLY like to keep it obd0 and im sure theres a way. also, what happens to the A/C idle compensator. i want to keep ac and i need a way to raise the idle when i turn it on. i know EG civics use a newer style then the EFs. so could i figure a way to use a newer style?

thank you in advance.
david

you might as well get the TB from the y7 set up. or custom make a new manifold with a cross from the DPFi and the Y7.

its a legitimate question. you're trying to do somethin that doesn't really make a whole lot of sense, so i feel it's reasonable to inquire why.

i have multiple hondas, i have done countless swaps and this car is not oriented twords speed. its just something i want to build for fun. i dont care if its the slowest thing in the world. i dont want a y8 because everyone has a y8. i want this motor, i want this intake, and i dont care to know what you all think about it. i just need answers from someone who knows how to do more then simple bolt together swaps. if i cant run obd0 withough an ef IACV then i will cut and weld a spot on the back of the intake to run it. this car has a theme to it, its not a racecar.
