i have a d15b2 stock block and im gonna throw a d16z6 head on it what kind of hp should i be looking at..more then a stock d16z6 ?

 

how would putting a 1.6 on a 1.5 be better then a 1.6 on a 1.6...... i cant believe im replying to this question..

 

WOW, Just Wow.

To the best of my knowledge, about the same as the z6. I assume you're doing everything right - OBD1 MPFI P28 4-wire O2 etc... ?

If you intend to run a VTEC switch or something retarded like that, expect your HP to be drastically lower.

Rywire for your wiring!!

You would not be making more power than a d16z6.....more than likely you will probably be making roughly between 100-115 hp that is if you do the swap the right way with the proper wiring/ecu/ etc etc

 

well im going to be running a switch for now ?? how would i loose power?

Becuase your vtec will kick in but your valves wont even be open

that is not true, because If you use an a6 short block, the compression will be a little higher.....

y7/y8, a6/z6. sohc ZC/z6, head will beat any sohc vtec stock engine..........

when using a switch, it will cause to activate the vtec, but the air/fuel ratio will be bad because you will use the same fuel maps with vtec and without vtec........ Since you are not upgrading to a vtec ecu......

vtec ecu's have 2 different fuel maps... One when vtec is not activated, the 2nd fuel map is when vtec is activated.

non-vtec ecu's have only 1 fuel maps setup for the engine.

Do what?! It'll work just fine, but extra fuel won't be supplied by the ECU if he doesn't use the correct ECU. So, power will be lost.

They are talking about a VTEC head on a 1.5L block not making as much power. All the mini-me you listed are all 1.6L's.

ohhh, sorry

 

remember kiddies that the mini-me setup will have higher compression than a straight z6 or y8. Displacement isn't everything although it does help.

 

the mini-me will definitely be worth it...all the parts are cheap and he'll be running a better r/s ratio than a d16 with higher compression.

very similar to a stock d15b

IF you convert to obd1 and run a p28 with some decent tuning

 

Correct me if im wrong but wouldnt a Y8 mini-me swap be better?might as well beacause if you do D16Z6 mini-me u have to do some slight modifications,D16Y8 just drops right in.

 

I have a Y8 mini-me swap and it runs just fine. The parts aren't expensive at all...the most expensive part to buy was the ECU and if your lucky you'll get on for about $100...at least I did. The only thing I can think of when choosing from a Y8 head or a Z6 head is most likely the Y8 head will have fewer miles on it since they are newer. Other than that everything else should be the same or close to it

 

The set up would be equal to that of the jdm d15b that makes 125hp because of the compression, and makes lousy torque. The last one i drove didn't impress me at all

 

so basicly that means i will be leaner in vtec which will m ake me faster it seems like to me

leaner doesn't always mean more power.

My car ran significantly slower with vtec engaged on a pm6 than with it disengaged.
