Hey guys, iv been working on my project car (http://www.honda-tech.com/zeropost?cmd=fshow&id=1#) (92 eg hatch) for a while now, and i just got my motor back in.. but ran into a few problems on the way... first off.. i have a 97 gsr motor, with the stock intake manifold...
it is turbo charged as well....


I decieded to take out the butterflies in the stock manifold because i heard you can run it that way on a boosted gsr and it will help in a lot of ways... well when i did that, it took about an inch clearance out, so now my throttle body is right next to the water pump i wanna say, where the radiator hoses plug into the back of the block..
question here, is has anyone ever done this.? if so can you post pics of what it looks like?? also can you take pics of what your vacuum line setup looks like as well?? Thanks!

I ran it like that a while back, i did have issues but I rerouted the hose. Can't take pics now because I swap out to HP manifold.

I have only seen one guy do that local, and it turn out nice, but I think you might need to change the water tube to an b16 or an ls cause it removes that line

hmmm i thought the guy at revolutions ran a lsvtec setup and had the butterflies removed from his gsr manifold???? i dont remember what exactly the setup was.. but i remember asking about that intake mani... oh well anyone have a Skunk 2 manifold for a gsr they would want to swap?? i have a skunk 2 mani for a b16....

what does Ladio's hatch run?

Is that a GSR or is that an LS/VTEC?

I know he makes some damn nice numbers, 717 whp if I recall from dyno day all those days ago.
