JDM B18B Intake Air Temp Question
Long story short, I have the JDM B18B with the IAT mounted onto the intake tubing rather than the manifold. I had the original sensor when I first got the motor (non-screw hole sensor) but no longer have it. I have it ghetto rigged currently with the normal 2 screw hole IAT shoved into the tubing hole with a hose clamp but I’m looking to change it to the normal one. I can’t find one listed for an Integra. However the 96-2000 civic ones look exactly the same and I’m wondering if I can use it? They’re both 2 wire so it should wire in fine. But would the actual reading to the ecu be different or would it be the same ? I know I can switch to a usdm manifold but I’d like to try a simpler and cheaper way first. Sorry for no pics, it’s not loading for whatever reason.
You cannot find one for an Integra because all Integras came with the two screw one in the intake manifold and NOT the one in the intake tube. Use the EK Civic ('96-00) sensor if you intend to run the IAT sensor in the intake tube.
FYI, if you are using a USDM ECU, it operates BETTER if you use the 2-bolt sensor screwed into the intake manifold. The intake tube sensor doesn't vary in value nearly enough for optimum performance with ANY Integra ECU. So the question that you have to ask yourself is: Do I want to fix this correctly or do what is easy ?
