i put a d16z6 head on a d15b1 yet i dont want to use the d15 distributer how would i wire it so i can use the d16z6 distributer.

 

well, knowing what car this is in would help, but if it happens to be a 92 hatchback, just throw in a P28 ecu and a D16Z6 engine harness. it'll run like a charm and the Z6 harness will plug right in

It is not possible. Your car currently has OBD-0 electronics, and the D16z6 is OBD-1. The OBD-1 distributor has an incorrect tooth count on the various internal sensors. You only have two options:

1. Use your D15 distributor and modify it to mount to the D16z6 head.

2. Convert your car to OBD-1 and use a P28 ECU with the D16z6 head, distributor, intake manifold, and associated sensors.

 

Thank you very much for your help what we did is modify the d15 distribator to fit the d16 head. my only question now is how much hp will i have?

 

Which intake manifold are you using? The manifold from your D15 or the one for the D16 head? Also, which ECU are you using?

Find a dyno, and let us know when you get done.

 

Ill get back to you on that dyno but im using the d16 manafold but im paying a guy from lincon tech to wire an si manafold. i havnt changed my computer yet, so its running off that. and my v-tech is on a switch i was having over heating problims because of a hole in my radiator. we modifyed the d16 dizzy and made it fit the d16.

 

how would i switch obd ecu to an obd1 and do i need to since my v-tec is on a switch?
