make the rex linkage longer you have to splice in the front half of the teg tho
it would be easier just to mod the teg linkage.........

i think thats what im gonna do..... anyone with input on if they like it or not would be great

The problem here is that the rods are backwards on the stock ED linkage. Specifically, on the ED linkage, the actual shift rod is toward the driver's side on the ED linkage but toward the passenger side on the Integra linkage. You would have to do some pretty creative bending to get the rods on the right side. And even then, the end of the torque rod on an ED linkage won't bolt to the B-series transmission. Seriously, you would have an easier time starting with a 1984-1987 Civic/CRX linkage, as it is closer to what you want. And it is cheap to buy. But even this won't be easy to modify.
