I don't have experience with them, but I'm pretty sure there more or less the same as a z6.

Still a good engine tho, and very good to boost.

Don't have any personal experieance with the D15B VTEC but I doubt either one of those scenarios are true. The D15B makes 130BHP, thats only 5BHP more than a Z6. Stock for stock I doubt a D15B-V will touch a B16A unless the B16A is in a heavy chassis and the D15 in a light chassis.
