Should i v-tec the D14?
 

hello everyone.

i know that this was done before.... but will it be worth the effort on my D14?

i can get a head in a good condition for a good price. (dont know from which engine yet)

my current setup is:
volvo .42 .48
log manifold
2"charge pipes
cca fmic
2.5 DP
D16z6 IM. (i might slap a b16 62mm tb on it)
p28+crome
engine bay wired for vtec and everything.

the d14 is stock.
9.1 cr
both valves are 58.70 mm



thanks

wait...your running a chipped p28 but your not running a vtec head? :S I say screw it and not worth the hassle.

Yeah. vtec is dissabled.

thanks for the opinion :)

i think it might be a good idea.. cause the stock flow of the engine is too low to gain some good hp at the cost of what u've done so far. with a d16z6 head your stock hp would be around 110 hp instead of 90 so same amount of boost would result a better result. it's something i've been considering on doing but you know i'm too lazy for this :)

So is it a 8v head? If so I say go for it, more flow= more power.
