when i said 15-20 horsepower i meant just from the
CHIPPING OUT he said it would increase my fuel curve and
make my redline higher im not really sure about this process though?

any thing else i could do to the head before putting it on
htat would be worth the money?? cam ect.....??

 

the motor i will be putting the vtec head on is a d15b8
sohc 8 valve 1.5l
just to let you know


thanks

 

u cant put a 16v head on a 8valve block unless u happend to get one like beua or jeff did with 16v reliefs... else ur just gonna bend the valves.!!

 

according to
http://www.npr- america.com/catalog/honda.htm[/
the piston and piston ring number is the same

w/o VTECH ENGINE, 16 VALVE 92-93 F.I. S.O.H.C. 4 D15B7 1493 75.00 SWH30365OE AM 11-527

w/o VTECH ENGINE, 8 VALVE 92-93 F.I. S.O.H.C. 4 D15B8 1493 75.00 SWH30365OE AM 11-527

are you sure that this isnt true>>

 

what is the oil orilface jet??
what does it do and what will happen if i dont take it off durring the swap??

 

Hey man, for info on the oil orifice jet, check out this guy's VTEC swap. I have used it as a reference ever since I began to think about a Mini-Me on my own.

Hey I don't know much about the whole ECU situoation, so I will just make a suggestion. Won't you have to upgrade your ECU to OBDII if you use a d16y8 head and VTEC ECU? Currently you are OBDI, same as my car, and with a d16z6 you need NO conversion wiring harness -- the VTEC ECU fits right on in place of stock (the conversion harness is like an extra $100). Any thoughts, guys?

 

he would still need to add the proper VTEC wires because he doesnt have a vtec engine in there right now. Unless honda made one harness for every car with all the wires with or without vtec engine, man wouldnt that be nice

 

im planning on doing the mini-me swap but i really
dont have enough money for a new tranny too will i be loosing power with the stock cx tranny?? the gears are ------ so far apart i can easily do 100 in third

Awesome. That's Xtensive's swap. He also has a site called mobstyle or something... along with www.ghettodyne.com

 

ever since i put the header on i noticed that when it was cold and i started it and it tends to "miss" its got somewhat of a dancing idle speed my mechanic said the header was loading up?? what ever that means and i was wondering if the new y8 head and injectors will affect this in any way
