Well first off this has been covered a million and one time do a search under minime, or mini me, or mini-me and you will come up with a lot of results....

Second a mini-me is when you swap a vtec head onto a non-vtec block so if you used a whole D16Y8 it would be a motor swap not a mini-me.

As for which is better some say the Z6 head is better some say the Y8 is better. I think the Z6 head flows better than the Y8 but the T8 IM flows better than the Z6 IM.
