OEM Airbox question for 96-00 Civic

I am just wondering if anyone can confirm that the oem Airbox from either an Integra GSR or Type R fits in an EK chassis?

Is it a bolt on, or simple mod to fit?

Any info would be awesome, thanks!!

I doubt it fits.

Intake manifold on a B18 is larger then a D16 I believe.

So the hose wouldnt fit

Air box would be the same though

I just looked for a few minutes, all I was able to come across is there is a little trimming needed. How much is a little, no clue.

We know it's possible, so it can't be that hard.
