jdm d15 head on usdm d16z6 block

Anyone ever done this? how much are the hp gains, i know the jdm head has a more aggressive cam. Im plannin on doin this to my boosted d16z6. Any info on this would be great, thanks!

Why wouldn't you just buy a Turbo cam for the Z6?

I don't think it is worth it, the Z6 head is really well designed for flowing good numbers.

i had a friend do an swap somewhat the same but used a d16 head and a d15 block
and got good numbers out of it with out boost so if that is the cast it should be a good producer of high single cam numbers good luck with the boost.

just gotta that bov.
