Here's a good write up on it.

Search mini and you will find alot of info, depending on what you can do it can be a pretty easy swap. If you wan't more power after that then the only thing you can do is get a turbo kit. Or swap the engine completely.

what's your definition of a good thing? it will make your car a little quicker so i mean if that's what you're going for then yea it'd be good..

you could pick up a d15b, d16z6, or d16y8 head.
