Setup for my D series

[myztery]

dont waste your money on doing a head swap just donk the turbo on whatever you got cos your only after a bit extra response, your not going to really notice vtec, because more than likely boost will dominate power.

Exactly!!

I keep telling people that but they don't listen.....

NO!!

waste of time and money

My old setup boosted D16Y1 SOHC VTec

119kw VTec turned off
124kw VTec on

Driving round ya can't even feel the difference

serz?

im not sure about the on and off but u can deff tell a huge diff wen vtec engages + boost..

then again i havnt tried the vtec on or off thing

Its your imagination

[redefine]

swap the Y8 head, i would say it flows a little better then the Y5, has a more aggressive lift compared to Y5..

AND the y8 runs on 4 valves per cyl before vtec

seriously? save ur money, that is all. doing a head swap on a sohc is like put a pod filter on, pointless and u wont feel any gain

[Limbo]

but i like my pod filter! LOL
just kidding

Yeah it virtually pointless. As ur SOHC vtec is only ignition i believe so most of it will get sorted by tuning

[FastFwd]

if you need a turbo im sellin a couple for cheep cheep.

i say have a think about other ways of building ur car instead of making it a straight line warrior with a bolt on snail. maybe invest in a set of coilovers, rims and good tyres and call it a day. or infest urself with oem and jdm goodies to eventually rock around in baller status
