Default Using Dx Intake Manifold off 92-95 DX good on Mini-Me (D16y7 Block /Y8 Head)

I've been running my Mini-me setup (Y7 block w/ Y8 VTEC head). My question is that I'm using a 93 Dx intake manifold, is it restricting air into the head. I was told from some dude that it is. My other question is that I have a Y8 and Z6 intake manifold too, which one should I use? How much HP is this setup anylways??

yes dx runners are smaller, you can even see it visibly
use the y8 one its better

use the z6 or y8 and the manifold that is complete. dx is meant for the smaller head ports of the non vtec motor

How much different is it going to make and do you know what the compression should be at with an average mini-me setup? (D16Y7 w/ Y8 VTEC head)

What I meant is the compression test per cylinder reading. The last time I test all the cylinders I got about 190-194 psi per cylinder. but the tester wasn't accurate.
