Default best head on d series

which D series is the best for a 92-95 civic ....i know there are different heads, Z6, Y8, ect....i want to get a d16 with a cheap turbo set up and be done with it...does one really have to spend all that thousands of dollars on a turbo it? or is there another way?

either the z6 or the y8 are probably going to be your best bet for a mini-me. they are basically the same specs and crap...127hp i think something around there. maybe 130 if you do some good ****. lol

y8's will add a touch of compression and the chamber is shaped different and helps to burn more efficiently.

I'm gonna keep trying to push the Y5 head for the roller rockers and stock cam having no overlap. Maybe if enough people use them they'll make more parts for it

I think y5's are cool too. Less mechanical complexity (being a sohc and all), roller rockers etc. They should be more work done with it.
