I had a couple of questions and I couldn't find an answer in search..
I'm looking to do a d series turbo eventually (daily driver)..

I have a d15b8 engine.. would it be worth putting on a z6 head or should I just get the entire z6 swap?

if I went with the b8 with z6 head, what kind of #'s could I except? I know the b8 isn't great for hp..

I was also wondering the best spot to pick up a z6?? I know hmotorsonline doesn't seem to have them? Should I just try junkyard?

thanks..

honestly if i was you i would go with the jdm d15b, more horsepower and way more torque then a d16z6...and probably about the same price...i can get you the engine for 400, pm me if you want more info about it

I was looking at either z6 or y8 because from what I've read they are the best d series for boosting...

as I said, I'm only looking for this for a daily driver, so I'm not looking for 20psi ...

that being said, how does the d15b stand up to turbo?

thanks..
