you can get a 2-stage vtec d15b ...more power than a stock non-vtec d15 and better fuel mileage than a z6 or a vtec d15 due to leaving an intake valve closed until 1500 or 2k rpm (forget) increasing swirl

I was wanting the d15 since easier to come by and in better shape then d16z6 , I was reading a couple threads talking bout they wont pass then read others that they pass with a chipped computer and a p06 mapping ? So I'm lost .
