Some of the earlier B20's had those on them I believe, could be back wards on that Honda switched over to the taller giraffe looking intake mani becuase it's design increases over-all torque a bit, but sucks for top-end power. Though it's not like the CRV need top-end power, it's an SUV with a 6500 RPM redline, so more torque is preferable is that situation.

Most people that swap B20's into their cars wind up running LS manifolds........with also suck flo-wise. Stock b20 swap usaully have a nasty flat spot in power between 3500-4500. A "purty" skunk2 mani will fix that right up though

Side Note: Thats a JDM B20B, which is equivilent to the USM B20Z spec sise(slightly higher c/r, than the USDM B20B). The car tha car out of kinda looks like what a 6th gen civic would if they made a wagon version of it. So the intake mani prolly is and LS that is more taliored to that engine bay and not like the typical CRV intake mani's most of us are used to seeing.

*edit* here is a picture
