If i am to convert my 99 civic from d16y7 to d16y8 how much will it help me to get a y8 tranny? Does it really make that much of a difference?

Most definitely. I put an EX tranny on my D16Y7 last weekend and it's a world of difference. Haven't done the head, but I can tell you my car is much funner to drive with the shorter gears.
