correct me if i am wrong if you get the whole swap like drop the engine and tranny out the donor car do you need any thing else cause i am doing a LS swap some by the begining of the winter. and is it possible to drop the engine and tranny as one with the shift linkage connected. and i am swaping from a D15 auto to to a LS stick

 

I don't want to start swapping axles and all that stuff. I just want it to be quick, not taking it to the strip or anything. What can I do to my stock motor without overloading it? Headers, exhaust, intake, bolt ons????? How much power will this give me?

 

tell ya the sad truth I/H/E won't give you much on a d15b7...it'll help, but it won't give you much...best bang for the buck than would be I/H/E AND a VTEC head swap...

 

vtec head swap?? IS that possible? what model v-tec head would I need to bolt onto my d15?

 

I'd recommend swapping to a D16Z6 head (vtec), D16Y8 intake manifold, D16Y8 tranny, P29 (USDM D16A1) pistons or PM7 (JDM ZC) pistons, and a good cam. That will bump your compression to about 10.5:1. Any block decking or head milling, or using a thinner headgasket will bump it further.

 

I really don't think N/A on a D will achieve much...it just tops out too easily...me personally would get a d16y8 head, p28 ecu, y8 manifold, y8 transmission, and than if no forged internals a diy turbo set-up at 5psi

 

HERE is an answer to your question about it being possible...quite easy to say the least if you're comfortable working on your car.

and I know there's a write-up somewhere on this forum, but I couldn't find it right away

 

Eh, with a D15 the difference would be about 150whp and 200ishwhp. Aftermarket D15 rods don't exist (I'm pretty sure), so his potential with a turbo will be limited.

 

He can always pick-up a z6 block and build it for later use

 

Good point. He could pick up several different blocks down the line.
