No it will not affect emissions.

Only things that would affect emissions is if you tuned your car (ie. changing fuel settings, A/F ratio, etc.) or changing your cat to a less environmentally friendly one..hehe.

Listen to kingjames regarding purchasing from our sponsors. Good advice.

Why do you say that?
I've built a lot of engines and find those Hondata gaskets suck ballz!
Especially the TB gaskets, they don't like to seal. As long as its OEM you will be fine and save money.

i've NEVER once had a problem with the hondata (or hondata style) intake manifold gasket, you must be doing something wrong.
I'd recommend using one for sure, i've picked them up for roughly $30-40 and i think they're worth it. I've never used a throttle body gasket though, as i don't really see the need to use anything other than an OEM gasket for the throttle body.
But like someone mentioned above, make sure to get the car tuned if you've got a lot of mods.

as previously stated, re & re intake manifold will not cause to fail emissions if you connect everything back together properly

I'm not an official "payed member" but seeing that i will be hoping to have my car mostly done this summer so maybe it wud be a good idea...

I've looked thru some of the vendors/sponsors and havent found any intake manifolds compatible with my jdm d15b, the blox 1 i've seen is only compatible with b-series. Any one kno exactly which sponsor/vendor?
