ok the other day i was watchin this show on mtv called street racing and they were following a guy with a ds2 integra from japan and he opend his hood and he had a throttle body for each cylinder i was like wow that is badd ass so could we get one for the 3 geee and how much more power is he getting

You can modify one for a b16 to fit rather easily. But they aren't cheap ($1500 for the manifold) and you'll need a programable injection system to run the car.

i am not sure how much HP you will gain unless you do polish and porting, headers, cat back system.

it would be much simpler, and make more sense to design a larger, ie more flow, tb for all 4 cylendars. there is no reason you need one for each, its a waste of time with extra sensors, sycronizing, and a whole lot of other pointless crap, pretty much just something to brag about. im not saying that this doesnt boost your hp, just i dont see any advantages over a single throttle body for all 4. we have small engines with relativly small fuel/air needs. its not like a 450+ ci engine that might make use of a carb for every 2 cylendars because a single carb of that size becomes inefficient based on flow/size and relative space.

Here's the goods. Yes this manifold can be made to work on a 3rd gen.

And I was wrong about the original cost, its $2355.00 for the kit, which includes injectors and a rail. And of course that doens't include the computer to manage the thing.

The horse power is going to be noticable, I don't think any one has done it yet with efi so there is no figure available. You also get better throttle response and that unmistakable quad intake sound.

Since that intake is from a b16a any b16a intake would fit. If you want to keep within a tighter budget you can get any b16a (b18a and b18c5 type R will also work, b18a is the easiest) manifold and have it on you engine in a few minutes with only a drill. The stock manifolds have shorter fatter runners and slightly larger plenums along with larger tb's for some more top end power. There are also alot of aftermarket manifolds available that can be made to work.

It has to have a significant preformance advantage. I know that some of the Honda 600 cc sport bikes have have 4 throttle bodies stock. I doubt they would have bothered with them if they were't worth the cost.
