Default D16a1 manifold on D15b6 head?

I've got a boosted 89 CRX hf with the weak d15b6 motor. Recently I got a d16a1 engine off a 89 integra.

I was looking at my intake manifold, and ompared to the d16a1 manifold that thing is tiny! Especially with turbo I bet that thing restricts a whole bunch of airflow.

I was wondering if I would be able to put the d16a1 intake manifold on my d15b6 head? I'm guessing your're gonna have to do some port matching, but how about the throttle body? will it fit? Are there any other things I need to worry about? They look basically the same, one's just a little bigger.

No. Different bolt patterns.
