If you check the FAQ or do a search, you can find the factory service manuals online and download them. Where in Japan are you?

i believe thats the crv. . . the abv is the hose thats right next to it. . . seems to go to the y-pipe. the abv should be closer to the y-pipe if you follow that hose toward the engine.

It's actually the ABV. The CRV is under the secondary intake tube on the firewill side of the y-pipe which is not visible unless you are on the passenger side wheel area looking down into the turbo around.
