Semi-urgent: B16 TB gasket - same as B18C5 (ITR) besides diameter?
Gentlemen,
Here's the PN for the TB gasket for a 2000 Civic Si (B16): 16176-P2T-004
I have a B18C Type-R and just got the TB and Intake Manifold back from MaxBore.com.
I need to get a new OEM TB gasket and enlarge the opening so it matches the MaxBore size.
Acura stealership is far from me, but I have a Honda stealer nearby.
Is the gasket the same as mine (16176-P73-004), besides the main opening?
If yes, I could buy the Honda one and save the trek to Acura.
TIA!

Ok, I wound up ordering an ITR TB gasket.
Leaving thread open for documentation/informational purposes, it would be cool to know.

b16 has 56mm throttle body. B18's start at 60mm ITR and H22 is 62mm. Not that hard to locate.
Should have taken a picture and measured the new diameter with a caliper/digital caliper.

I wasn't concerned about the TB inside diameter, but whether or not the other ports and opening matched.
But now I am stuck having to modify an OEM gasket, since he makes the custom gasket while boring your TB.
