Re: h22 intake manifold
Manifold choice depends on your mount choice. Are you using a full "H" swap or are you choosing H2B ??? If you choose H2B, either works just fine.
On a straight "H" with Hasport mounts, a Euro R would be really tight and the Skunk2 doesn't fit at all unless you do a brake line tuck. I have a Skunk2 on mine... it was cut in half just behind the fuel rail bosses, 7/8" of the runner length was removed, it was re-welded together and then ported/smoothed to straighten the intake runners back out.
After all that, I gained almost no more HP over the stock H22 manifold, but it sure does look much cleaner in the engine bay.

Nope... actually, maybe... but probably not.
Brake line tuck and fuel filter relocation... for the Skunk2. The EuroR... the trouble area will be the IACV. Safe money is on the stock manifold.

Re: h22 intake manifold
From my experience i had a h22 with h series transmission in my 98 dx hatch with a skunk pro series intake manifold that cleared the firewall. I bought the car already swapped and it had a block off plate with hose fittings in the spot where the iacv would normally bolt up. Although once i installed a 72mm blox throttle body i had to bang in the firewall a little bit to make clearance for the tps sensor. I bought a RBC intake manifold with the K2H adapter for my new setup yet if you want to make good power without breaking the bank id invest in a euro r manifold.
