Default mild build n/a

so i have had a few setups fall into my lap and i think i want to do a mild n/a setup. This is what im looking at doing and any comments if any one else has run this setup or not.

this is all on a d16a6 motor

zc pistons raises the compresion to 11.1
Gude cam
4-1 header
dual valve springs
and some other external mods

not looking for a really fast just spunky and since its higher compression do i need injectors or just premium gas? or tune it with it a chipped ecu? and i have a z6 block and a y8 head. No im not going to do the obd1 swap and mini me. cuz i have the stuff to do a turbo d but decided this is the amount of money i want to spend on this car.

So any input on this setup and if the z6 block would be better or not.

higher compression=higher octane fuel, definatly run 93 if you can, 91 minimum. also when you significantly change the amount of air going into and out of your engine (cams), you definatly would want to tune with some kind of engine management, a chipped ecu would probably be cheapest. going obd1 would be easier for this though.
