Mini me with Gude head?
So i'm to mod out my d15. Yeah, go ahead and laugh, say i need a dohc vtec, whatever. The thing im wondering about has to do with the gude performance head kits. They already make one for my d15, but i was thinking it would be really awesome if i used the gude head for the d16 as a mini me swap onto my d15. Do you guys think this would work out and be worth it?

If you want to mod the head from a D16 then get the D16y8 head and have it build. Do not go with the Gude head packages though go with Speedmachineracing.com
http://www.speedmachineracing.com call them and tell them Nate from Mayhem sent you and he will help you out. They are all into Single Cams. They own a SOHC VTEC All Motor running low 11's

Sometimes it's just not worth it. Replace the engine if you're interested in performance, keep it stock if you want A to B transportation.

Thanks Frostebyte. Does anyone know if a clutch for the d15 will work with a d16? I just got a stage 3 clutch for my car cause my clutch was really worn, but now if i do decide to swap (which i might) it'd suck throwing away a perfectly good clutch. I dont really think id ever be able to find another person who wants to buy a performance clutch for their d15... but maybe someone with a d16 would want it. My deal is i want to mod a lot with all the money i get over the summer. Since i do slave labor ill prob only make 4-5k over the entire summer. This means i could do a good swap with some bolt ons, or i could build my engine a little and run a turbo. Does every here think running a turbo on my engine is a shitty idea compared to a swap?
