Great video ! This is so underrated. After watching 5 videos on how to do it , this is the one I learned the most , thanks !

[@brotherboost]

Broke del Sol gooooood! When I was trying to do it the first time I had trouble finding a video that explained everything so I figured I would make one. I’m glad it helped you out!

[@Ayo_Edboy]

Broke del Sol ... highly agree not to many people are really explaining what to do and most videos sound quality sucks

[@thewholetruth5173]

Same here every question I had you answered , thanks from UK

[@max.racing]

Same here! I will do the swap soon and this answered all my questions! Thanks man.

[@brotherboost]

So glad I could help!!

[@shanewamhoff8187]

Thanks for the video. It helped me out when I swap my y7 intake for a y8 automatic from 98 that I had laying around. I noticed the difference in power and sound its louder now. Have y8 head that I'm gonna rebuild and then it going on there too.

[@jaxsonkareem5738]

i realize I am kinda off topic but does anyone know of a good website to watch newly released series online ?

[@MarinusvdMeulen]

This is the most clear video I've seen in how this swap is done! Thanks

[@brotherboost]

Thanks for the feedback!!

[@nikolasmorgan3705]

This video is PERFECT. just did my auto to manual trans swap and I swapped the intake while the motor was out thinking I could just kinda slap it on lol

[@brotherboost]

I’m glad it helped!

[@danielmoore17]

Great video man. I'm going to have to rewatch this when I do this

[@brotherboost]

Thank you! I love knowing I'm actually helping people lol.

[@brotherboost]

I accidentally removed your comment but thank you man!

[@Rajemluvalier]

Thanks buddy you video saves me a lot searching time! God bless you

[@brotherboost]

That’s great to here!! Thank you!

[@ElbertWR]

The manifold with the extra holes by the ports is a 99-00. The Auto-Trans version has the ports on the back blocked off, which is what you want. So the best manifold to use is a '96 to '98 Auto-Trans EX one.

[@brotherboost]

Elbert W. Reiziger ohhh okay. Thank you for that information. I did not realize that

[@JohnnieIsBored]

How about for a 1999 Honda civic?

[@ElbertWR]

@@JohnnieIsBored For a Manual 99 Civic get the Manifold from a 96-98 EX Automatic. That's what I did on my 99 DX Hatch (manual).

[@JohnnieIsBored]

@@ElbertWR thank you for your reply. Did you have any issues with idles or anything? How is it holding up so far?

[@JohnnieIsBored]

@@ElbertWR should I also follow this exact step from this video to have a smooth install?

[@adamkotlarski1602]

Good work mate, im about to swap d14 manifold to d16 and your video helped me a lot. My shitbox is eating more oil than fuel so i know i should do other things in it but being a civic owner have its rules right XD. keep up the good work greets from poland.

[@brotherboost]

Sweet! Thank you so much for the comment and feedback

[@dwainecameron1325]

Perfect step by step bro help me 110%.....

[@brotherboost]

Gooooood

[@tuckertrana1881]

thank you so much this helped me with the swap so much

[@brotherboost]

Good! Thanks for the comment!

[@Alpha-cr5cb]

Good job

[@craiggraham5509]

Dope

[@dw4940]

If i put a brand new or rebuilt head on a 1998 civic dx (d16y7)with 250,000 miles, without rebuilding the bottom end, is that a bad idea? Is there any chance of blowing engine? Any opinions would be appreciated.

[@SvetGolovkin1462]

That one bracket i can't loosen up removed the head, distributor, all the hoses and fuel rail

[@Constantuned]

HVAC sensor. lol Only poking a little fun thanks for sharing

[@Constantuned]

just completed my y8 head swap and wish i wouldve watched this first. Some helpful stuff in here. I had to learn it while i was doing it lol. Ill be uploading a video this week.

[@dwainecameron1325]

👍👍👍👍

[@quinton7854]

bringing it back, is this the sameway for the z6 intake on the y7?

[@brotherboost]

I think so but I honestly don’t know for sure

[@throttlefilms]

i did this swap and it idles around 1500-2000 rpm and jumps around 100+/-rpm Theres a vaccum leak somewhere. i dont know if i cleared the old gasket enough but i tried for hours and u can still see some barely but im not sure if thats okay. also while scraping off old gasket i accidently cut the head/surface around studs and now theres little holes and cuts on it. would that cause vaccum leak?

[@brotherboost]

Yeah that old gasket sucks to clean but you gotta get it all

[@Ayo_Edboy]

Nice 👍🏽 ... i have a 2000 d16y7 and just recently got a y8 vtech head . Any thought on anything else i should do ?

[@brotherboost]

Ayo Edboy time for a turbo haha! I actually sold mine but I miss it so much

[@Ayo_Edboy]

BrotherBoost lol i wish but i prolly wont be doing that , my question is since im putting the y8vtech i should get the y8 harness , throttle body and intake manifold

[@brotherboost]

Ayo Edboy oh yes. All of that for sure!

[@Ayo_Edboy]

BrotherBoost greatt good to know thanks 💪🏼

[@kristopherlupton6908]

Did you get an special gasket ? It looks thinker? I have the orginal gasket and isnt thick enough for conversion.

[@brotherboost]

No it was nothing special. Just made sure it was for the y8 intake. What gasket are you talking about. The intake manifold gasket or the throttle body gasket?

[@kennethpartlow7110]

Couple questions. What year is your car if it’s a 99-00 what ecu you running and is the IACv a 2 or 3 wire. It would help me fix my car thanks

[@brotherboost]

The car is a 98. I don’t have the car anymore but I think it was a 3 wire

[@kennethpartlow7110]

Your video helped me a lot

[@brotherboost]

@@kennethpartlow7110 goooood!!

[@kennethpartlow7110]

Still haven’t found my current answer to my question but I’m still researching

[@dylanbaile6832]

Did u have to grind the welds down

[@brotherboost]

Yes

[@Celicabryce]

Are you using your y7 throttle body?

[@brotherboost]

Y7 throttle body with the Y8 throttle body gasket, y8 throttle rotor, and y8 throttle cable.

[@jaden_561-boi9]

Have a problem where I turn my car on my rpm’s instantly surge to 3000

[@brotherboost]

You might have the wrong throttle body gasket on

[@Alpha-cr5cb]

Reset idle control valve

[@JohnnieIsBored]

Would this be the same process on a 1999 civic?

[@brotherboost]

I would imagine it would be the same

[@OmarPerez-ln4es]

Questions sir is it fine to run a d15b7 manifold on a d16y7 engine??

[@brotherboost]

Yeah I would think so. As long as everything bolts up correctly

[@OmarPerez-ln4es]

@@brotherboost yes everything is installed in running just wanted to make sure since there from different engines before getting a throttle body for the manifold

[@brotherboost]

@@OmarPerez-ln4es I personally wouldn’t worry about anything. You engine will adjust to it.

[@sethkendrickperalta3530]

Do you have a y7 or y8 head?

[@brotherboost]

Seth Kendrick Peralta this is a y7 head

[@rafaelyoutube8980]

Good morning mate! How did you install the canister sensor on the Y8 collector? hugs

[@brotherboost]

I didn’t take any sensors off I let the one sensor on the throttle body. Idk if that’s what you are talking about or not but that’s the only sensor I came in contact with

[@rafaelyoutube8980]

@@brotherboost would be the canister sensor, I wanted to see how it connected

[@tsjuno]

I never understand why people feel the need to put music on the videos. I’m forever turning volume up and down

[@brotherboost]

Sorry buddy. First video lol, I’m learning. Thanks for the comment!

[@tsjuno]

@@brotherboost very informative video. Project is coming along nicely.
