You need to be way more specific than this...

Of course you need injectors, and you should always get tuned when you change something within the motor.

So idk what you are trying to ask.

My guess is he is asking to go turbo, but like 1995Civic said specifics= better answers.

ur gonna need larger injectors and a tune would be a really good idea. i hope hes not talking about turbo cause that comp ratio is way to high for a sohc to boost. if u boost that u might as well video tape the head cause its coming off lol

well i just did the mini me swap. im not going turbo. im keepin it the way it is, its my daily i just did it to have a lil more pep. i read on ht that if i took out the middle layer of the head gasket it would bump up compression to a 10:1 or 11:1 and i was just wondering at that compression is it ok for me to drive, with factory injectors and such or do i need to upgrade anything to make it run safe/ properly.

You can use the stock 240cc injectors, I forgot what the B7 uses, but the Z6/Y8/LS all use 240's, as long as it's the same generation and series, they'll work.

Stock Z6 inejctors will work 100%.

You should have a 10.4:1 compression ratio, the only thing you'll need is a higher octane gas. You risk pre-ignition if you use 87 octane, that's it. No tune is necessary, just run a P28 ECU, but if I were you, I'd want it optimal, so you might wanna get an OBD-I ECU chipped and tuned on crome or neptune or something so you get the most out of your mini-me.
