Alrighty, I was reading this on wikipedia


One of the most popular and effective methods of achieving greater power from a D-series motor is replacing the cylinder head with one from a more powerful D-series motor. This is usually done between D16A6 and D16Z6 or D16Y7 and D16Y8 engines. The Z6 and Y8 heads are VTEC (Variable Valve Timing and Lift Electronic Control) equipped, and increase horsepower significantly over stock levels. This operation is known as a "Mini Me" or partial swap. Mini Me's are popular because they offer a substantial performance upgrade by adding VTEC to the motor at a relatively low cost.


And I was wondering where I could find a z6 or y8 head? And if you put on on a regular d16 motor, will it actually give it v-tec and increase horsepower?

thanks guys.

 

well you would need the vtec ecu and you would have to wire up the vtec wire to the harness

 

Yep it will, but like alex said, you will need an ECU and then wire up the VTEC... I want to do one on my Y7 with a Y8 head... but for now, I'm fine with my motor...
