A b16a will be closer to the oil pan than a gsr. I used to run a b16a1 manifold on my lsvtec till I figured out it was cooking the oil a bit. GSR fits perfect. These are stock manifolds I'm talking about, don't know about aftermarket but I'd assume a similar trend.

get the jdm type r witht hte skid plate, you will get mad props on it because not many people have it and its OEM. it doesnt sit low either like a dc would. and i think its about the same price. my buddy just got one and you will need a different cat thouhg because of the 2.5in collecter. and you would have to use an s2000 doughnut gasket for the collecter to cat.
