you need to do research, this topic has been covered quite a few times. I'm not sure if the mini-me is the same as the b-series frankensteins, but I'm sure it's similar.

the bottom half of the motor is what counts with boost.

first u have to look at the diff between a vtec head and non

all the vtec does is kick on a solnoid that makes the intake valves stretch open a little bit further when at a high rpm.

If anything you'd think that boost + vtec would be pretty fun to play with (i wouldn't know I've never driven a honda with the combination of the two).

Unfortunately everything I own is an automatic :(, I don't know why it has worked out like that but it just is like that.. but I too really wanted to "pffst" i decided to go out and get a BOV simulator and it's worked out great for me! Even with the automatics I drive!

can't you just see it dangling off to the right there in the pic below?

I wonder if anyone found humor in that last post or not, I had to repost before ya'll cock knockers started to flame on me.

But it is true on the automatics, mostly cause the certain vehicles I drive didn't come production with 5 speeds.

Anyways, good luck on the boost project, don't get stupid and blow that motor like what happens to so many people when they get careless (like what's gonna happen to keven's fuel managementless ass)

Just dont forget to remove the oil oriface jet on the deck of the block or you will have a Mini-me minus vtec. ;)

just boost your d15 the way it is. your compression will be too high with the vtec head on it. once you learn how to deal with your fuel setup , you can upgrade the head later on.
and yes its normal to act like a boost nut. ;)

dont do a vtec head swap. get the a6 head. it flows far better.

hey, bisimoto doesnt have vtec on his all motor 9 second crx. lol. o would just swap out cams, and get a gsr tb and an an-r exhaust manifold and call it quits.
