you can use an automatic y8 intake. that way you can use your y7 throttle body and everything will work just fine. i have done quite a bit of research into this.

you can switch your car to vtec by getting the correct harness, o2 sensor, ecu, and most of all a y8 head

how much ya pay for the edelbrock kit and where did ya get it?

i can do this conversion to vtec as well
