Yes, you can. I'm in the process of making my own MPFI harness for my Sedan right now, using an auto DPFI harness. I'm taking my time because I want all the wires to be inside the loom and look clean. You will need some extra wire, and it has been helpful to have a second auto DPFI harness beside me to harvest the occasional pin and connector out of. When I pulled the intake manifold (94 Civic EX) from the junk yard, I also cut and took the portion of the harness with the injector wiring on it. I was considering doing a writeup once done.

yes, as long as you rewire to manual specs and remember to add the wiring for reverse lights because auto needs a ground for the back up switch (auto has it in the shifter), remove the egr valve wiring (if its present). your essentially gutting it and building a new one.

Also...to do it right, you should use shielded wire for the CYP. I've seen lots of people don't, but to do it right, you should.
