Intake mani question

I have a 99 civic ex, and was going to put the skunk2 manifold, can I use a gsr tb instead of the ex's? if so what year does the TB have to be, will it also send codes to my ecu?

the gsr is a b-series motor wil yours is a d-series, you cant mix parts around into different engine families.

Using a larger throttle body on a stock car will be pointless.

If you want to though, I guess you could make some sort of adapter.

Re: Intake mani question

Don't buy a gsr tb though. Like crx said. Can't mix d with b. Plus just hook the stock one back up for now and when you do fuel upgrades than you can increase that airflow. Cause with more air induction you need better fuel delivery. There's a little thing called fuel startvation and it can happen. I'm jus saying before you go all out with improving air induction and exhaust, you better do some fuel upgrades while your not so busy.
