    Shoot. um... take a look at this link... i hope it can help... if not make sure you plug all the vacuum lines/ports that could be leaking vacuum.

    Well #16 and #17 can be connected to the SR... #16 however is not labled with a #... but it is visually recognizable by it's larger size.

    the smaller #17 vacuum line also connects to the SR... your SR does come with 2 sizes of vacuum ports right? one large one small?

    most SR's have 2
    one for a vacuum line and one for the PCV hose from the valve cover. but instead of connecting it to the valve cover you connect it to hose #16.

    How about a rear bar mike. I'm too lazy. I have all the tools to make one, but I don't want to.

    I nedd to figure out how much it will cost for parts and labor for me. Mike is selling his for around $75 so I will probably be in the ballpark.

    Mike should know too. He has got a SR on his carb. I would go out side and take a look at my car but it is EFI now.

    Sr Dream

    well i now have a custom civic intake
    i finally got her strapped on, hoses on ,hoses capped clearances etc...etc.... i used a sheet of aluminum as a cover on my adaptor so i didn't have to cut my hood
    power gain is noticeable
    .... yo i got like 30hp yo this SR, my car runs 0-60 in 5.4 seconds with it and my intake got my Q mutha fucken T time to 13 seconds flat.... (i'm not actually serious)
    but it is defintaly noticeable my car is more zippy and she gets up to high rpms a bit faster, the SR make a cool noise too i can put my hand on it after me and my pops running the molson indy through my town but its still a little hot but defintaly worth it
    i'll post pics of my intake
    i'd like to thank the engineers that made this creation

    phil
