Intake Manifold Swap

What's good yall. I have the J32A1 with the 3.2 IM and TB. I'm wanting to swap out a 3.7 IM and TB. I saw folks saying the Pilot or MDX parts would be a bolt on swap. Is this right? Can someone please give me a solid rundown of all parts necessary for this swap? Already have headers, high flow, tsudo axleback and a CAI (sits where the bottom air resonator was) . I also plan on adding the IM spacer.

thanks for any advice.

Everything would bolt up I believe, but the 37 is dbw whereas the j32a1/2 is drivin by cable. Also there are different vacuum ports on the 37 manifold. If you want to use the 37 manifold you the best bet would be to use a blox b series drive by cable throttle body with a adapter (p2r makes this) The j32a1 has a smaller lower intake runners (fuel injector base) port than the j37 as well so you would want to get new lowers. The new lowers will most likely require new fuel injectors (I believe the lower runner are different in height and will require longer injectors)

minimum need throttle body adapter for dbw to cable. P2R tb adapter comes with thermal gaskets for throttle to intake, but not lower to upper. optional if desired. lower spacer is optional too. they have a couple different thicknesses.

Recently picked up a j35a8 intake from an 06 RL. There are a few pics of it split open in the 2G CL forum, under the pic section if interested.
