92-95 Civic throttle body will work (stay away from CX/VX). There are older versions that still use the firewall mounted map sensor but the newer throttle body mounted map sensor will work just fine, you just have to pull the plug from the loom to make it reach.

In addition, OBD1 Integra and 92-96 H-series will work. Not sure if 90-91 Integra and 90+ F-series share the same throttle body flange pattern.


PS:
You may want to bang out the firewall a bit because the IACV/EACV will be riding on it (literally).

Yeah, I had no idea either. That's why I started to document all the stuff. There is one other thing I remember distinctly pissing me off and I had to undo everything after figuring out all that stuff in the link. Take care of this hose first:



It is extremely difficult to install while the manifold is in the engine bay. I couldn't even use the original clamp, I had to switch it up to this:

Honestly your guess is as good as mine. I never got around to doing the whole dyno part and I removed the manifold because I got tired of it rattling against the firewall.

4 years later after i beat my firewall in, i put heat back into my car and the new heater core box wouldn't go into place like it should, so i had to beat it back the other way a bit. only downfall to this intake manifold. so be careful when you do beat in your firewall if you still have heat in your car, you mite damage something!!
