hey, so right now i have a pretty much stock d16y7, my plans were to mini-me it and turbo it. BUT i was talkin to this guy who also turboed his d16y7 and we ended up talkin about the vtec. i know this guy on this other forum i go on who runs the 14b on his mini-me d and he is pullin like right around 200whp, the vtec gave him 20hp. im contemplating whether or not its worth it to do the mini-me for 20 horses? im not tryin to make my car a sleeper, but just quick enough to have some fun. what do you guys think?

 

vtec not ness. give u 20 horse but it gives you a wider power band.

 

I would just buy a beefy non VTEC cam.

either one works in my opinion. y7 manifolds suck once you get a nice mani/tb they really open up

 

yeah, i was thinkin better cam, of course rods and pistons. then just slap a turbo. i was thinkin about gettin one from this site called turbocalculator.com they are remanufactured turbochargers at ok prices. then ill just get the junkyard ic. smic or fmic whatever i can find in good condition.

 

I would get a sohc vtec z6 manifold or y8 manifold ported w/ a big bore throttle body while your adding the cam. I offer these services and have them in stock

 

well then how convenient :aughs evily:: j/k but yea im kinda out of a job right now. but when i get one, how much would you charge me for the z6 mani? (and correct me if im wrong, but the z6 does allow more air flow correct?)

 

If i remember right, the y8 intake manifold is bigger than the z6 one. I have a z6 in my rex, and the intake from an a6 looks bigger. The y8 is the way to go if you want a bigger manifold.

 

nonvtec is better
