That is a good question. I just use the regular bolts (one that screws in from the tb to the im without the nut) to put them back in since I was wondering if they would move or not when I bolt them back on.

They won't come out because you'll tighten them when you install them in the TSX manifold. They won't come loose.

Has anyone used the Hondata gasket?

Just so there are no redundant questions, the P2R and Hondata gaskets are two different pieces entirely and they should not be confused. The hondata gasket goes between the injector base and the head, while the P2R gasket goes between the injector base and the primary intake manifold.

i believe i do not need a gasket scraper to replace old gasket with hondata thermal gasket... correct should be just slip out old one and slip hondata one in

i'll snap some pics if anyone wants some.

DEF DEF get a new one.... my car had about 65k when i did mine and it was a BITCH getting it off...
took me about an hour and 15 min to get that gasket off.... no fun at all and not an easy location to deal with
$5 tops for a new TB gasket... and if you wanted to you could bump it up a notch and go with the P2R (power rev racing) tb gasket.... not sure how big of a difference it would make but its an option for an upgrade compared to stock tb gasket

well p2r gaskets are hard and expensive to get up here... so when i do my TSX IM ill just do the hondata gasket as well... i already have the OEM TB and IM gaskets.
i got one question, does any know if i use the hondata gasket (which is alot thicker then the oem gasket) will the TSX bracket still line up with the IM properly

i did the install about 2-3 months ago and from what i experienced... dont think that 16lbs is alot... you DO NOT want to strip out those bolts.... get it as tight as you can without really applying force... then go an extra 1/2 turn
dont over do it.
as far as judging 16lbs.... that number is meaningless to me as my tools... dont over do it... all i can offer, you know what tight is
i also made up my mind to use the bracket, some people do some people dont.... its not a vital piece... and for that to be tightened to a specific tightness... is a little overkill IMHO
your gonna love the TSX IM.... with a CAI its even that much better
i noticed when i am 5000rpm+ i hear a hissing sound from my instake and tsx IM just sucking air so hard.... its a great sound/feeling
g/l with the install... and g/l with the damn TB gasket haha

did the install today, and didn't need to use a new gasket which i was happy about. got the whole thing done in about an hour and a half. and that's with trying to figure out how to get that plug off the IM bracket...damn thing pissed the fuck out of me.
there's definitely a new found pull in third gear. it's weird because you don't notice any difference till mid way into 2nd gear. the intake almost sounds quieter now with the TSX IM than with the stock one. even my brother said the same thing. but i'd say its a worth while upgrade. but i'll get some more feel of it after it's been on for a few days...and im glad i have spring break because im getting my exhaust installed finally!
