"Mystery Intake Manifold Theatre" - a two part series
bought an aftermarket IM today, auction said "Skunk 2 B18a", went to pick it up and guy said "I don't really remember what it is". Lame. He's got a 94 Integra RS. I've got a 91 Integra LS. I just stumbled on a pic of a Blox IM here - (http://www.**********.com/zerothread?id=1318276 ), h o n d a - t e c h . c o m - which looks exactly the same. Lemme know what you think. there is a number stamped on the top of the IM - 030826
For the 2nd part of the "Mystery Intake Manifold" series we'll be trying to figure out what to do with the EACV? Help? Hours of so far futile searching.

I might have a suggestion on the 2nd part. When I installed my JRSC I needed to locate my map sensor from the throttle body to the intake manifold so that it would read vacuum and boost. On the throttle body it would only read vacuum.
It looks like the thing you are calling an EACV (I don't know what it's purpose is and what it does) but it looks like it is reading vacuum pressure and doing something in response. So what you need to do is put it someplace else and run a vacuum line to it. Make a plate and drill some holes in it so that it can be bolted down. Then drill some sort of hole in the plate and thread it as an 1/8" NPT and thread in a barbed fitting. Then connect a vacuum line to it and route it to a source or tee it off of something else coming off the IM.
Just my thoughts and I could be completely misunderstanding what you are tryng to do
What is that and what does it do? I found a really good deal for brand new blox intake mani's for only $150. So I might get one as soon as i pay off all my court fines.

I ain'ts gotz no's ideas, knowumnain? As far as I can tell this thing just circulates air. Air from manifold in, air out to intake, air out to something that flows into the pressure regulator or purge control (referencing my piece of crap chilton's).
"as soon as I pay off my court fines" - lol

That thingy on it in the second pic....... That is basically the equivalent of an egr valve..... it just takes extra fumes that are just sitting around inside the manifold and puts them in the canister that is on the back of the firewall, behind the motor.... There should be 3 hoses on the canister..... the 2 big ones go to that lil thingy, and the other hooks up at the top of Throttle body.. The little one is hooked to a vacume line on the chassis or the end of the IM oposite the Throttle body... Im pretty sure for a teg its on the IM, and civics have them on the chassis... you can take it off.... it is just for emissions....
Keep that shit for smoggy time though
