Default Type-R Intake manifold Question??

I am swapping the Civic Type-R I/M on to my 1st gen b16a. My question is, Honda moved the IAT sensor on the Type-R I/M to the 3rd intake runner from the right, but the problem is the 1st gen b16 the FPR (fuel pressure regulator) is mounted on the fuel rail right above the three intake runner.
The same runner as the IAT sensor is on and it looks as though the two will get in the way of each other.

Does anyone know if this is the case??? I need to know because i will purchase a new fuel rail and FPR before my I/M comes in the mail if the two do get in the way of each other

honestly the fpr doesnt NEED to be there. You could move it to another location in the engine bay or you could possibly only attach one screw for the FPR and move it so the IAT fits.

I would re route the fpr I think that just putting one screw is asking for trouble down the road.

yes..
i was bout to post this up too

you're best option would be in changing your fuel rail to any 94+ integra or 92+ B16 fuel rail. It will fit perfectly and everything will be dandy.
