Icon2 Jdm d16a non-v mini me. w/ d15b head

so i got a d16a motor with dc headers atm. bought d15b vtec head with fuel rail, intake manifold, throttle body for 150$ and its been resurfaced. gonna slap it on my d16a block. got obd2 gsr ecu already. anyone know how viable this mini swap will be, like hp wise i should be gaining right? especially since its a v-tec head?

oh and i bought timing belt for it from d16y7/8 and hear peoples opinions on if it will fit on right.

Its going to run like crap with that GS-R ECU, pick up an OBD1 ECU and have it chipped and tuned.

you get an OBD2 to OBD1 conversion harness, some info on what vehicle this swap is going into would be really helpful.
