i think the intake manifolds MIGHT be different but im not sure. You can still use the stock TB, you just dont have as many different things to hook up as you would on the Auto.

I did the same auto to manual swap in my civic. It is a 95 ex, so there is a little difference in the manifold setup but in my swap I didnt have to do anything with the intake manifold, and the only thing with the throttle body is that there was one cable that ran down to the tranny that had to be removed so there is an empty grove but all of the stock stuff still worked fine.

for Bster, my swap ran me about $1500 but about half of that was an xtreme duty clutch and a prolite flywheel. Just make sure you do all of your research before your buy the first part and make sure you really want to do it. If you decide u want to do the swap I can give you a list of all the things that I had to have to make the conversion.

yes i did get the emails-but heres the problem that i got.
i have a automatic 2000 accord ex with the f23a1 engine in it, its a 2.3 liter at 150hp stock. i want to make it manual and turbo charge it. people all over are saying dont do that manual swap-its a waste of money. just swap out the engine for a jdm one with a tranny-then i hear dont do that just swap the tranny and build up the block and turbo charge it-so from this point i am confused on what to do and what to get i dont want to sit her and waste time pondering on what i am going to do i want to get with it. Most transmission places that i call say that-to do a tranny swap is a pain in the ass and most wont do it, do i need to look for like a high performance shop to get it done??-please please help.

well got the sensors that i needed from a 95 civic ex, anyways how do i hookup the wires to the sensors if i didn't have the sensors in the first place. my auto tb didn't have the iacv on the back thus, no wires.
