So i was wondering if it was better to swap out the non-VTEC D16 in a 99 CX hatch for the VTEC D16 and either build up the VTEC D16 N/A or boost the Vtec d16, or just boost the non-vtec d16? Supposedly the non-vtec's are better for turbo-ing because of the lower compression ratio. I want to swap to an 94+ LS VTEC B18, but i would probably be much happier with a turbo single cam. anyways, thanks for the help

Thanks!

Boost the non-VTEC the D16y8 does not respond well to N/A mods such as the I/H/E combo. Not worth the money to do the swap.
