d15 d16y8 mini me swap mpg, power, ?
I am planning a budget build and ran across this y8 head and intake . Would this be a good combo for mpg and fun ? I was going to mill stock head and ad cam.

i had this same motor. b7 block and y8 head. made mad power over a stock b7.
had vtec at 4500. make sure the bottom end is in good shape though. yeilds good compression. use the honda compression calculator

Use the same injectors and still a 1.5 liter, so if you don't get on the peddle (stay out of vtec) your mpg should be similiar. You are using a 1.6 ecu map sorta, if you get it tuned.... should maintain mpg when driven casual.
