I'm new to to forum and I'm the proud new owner of a 92-96 JDM H22. I'm trying to get all of my parts ready for this swap. The exhaust manifold that came with my engine definately won't fit on my 95 Accord with my Tanabe Exhaust. I know I could scrap my exhaust and have one made so that the exhaust manifold will fit. But I like my Tanabe Exhaust and having just spent 600bucks scraping it isn't an option. I have heard that I can use 97 Prelude SH manifold and A-pipe (I think thats what the honda parts guy told me) but for 900 bucks I think I can do better. I was wondering for those of u that have done this swap what aftermarket headers are there that will fit with stock cat and a bolt-on aftermarket exhaust.
One more thing that I'm having problems with, what map sensor do I use, after reading the Sports Compact Car article, they recommend that I use a 91-93 civic Dx map sensor, unfortuately the DX Civic doesn't have one, the Ex Civic does, also after looking at the prelude shop manual I noticed that there is a seprate map sensor without a bunch of emissions stuff with it. So I'm really confused, other than that everything is going pretty good, my LSD is half way finnished in my tranny, the new clutch was easy and the timing belt wasn't bad after some creative engineering with the auto tensioner. Any help would be greatly appreciated
