Ex head, DX motor
Hey i have a dx hatch back and i want to throw on some ex parts so i can beat ex's cuase of my weight. Right now i have an ex intake manifold and an ex throttle body. Next i want to add a Ex head and wire up the vtech(lol im joking. Vtec. (sorry i had to say it since everyone else does.) How easy is it to swap the heads? Will it be a direct bolt on? How much HP can i gain? How much will it improve my quarter time? My friend with a hatch has an ex intake mani n ex throttle body with just an exhaust on a dx hatch n he runs a 16.3(slow as shit but quick for a dx). Some please let me know. Ty

well you wanna go for the mini v tec if i were you i would just save up and get a swap but hey thats me
i would guess that that swap of the head would require a machinest to drill some oil holes like on ls v tec conversions im not sure but ive heard that stock ex's run about the same has a dx hatch because of the power to weight ratio ........ hey im probably wrong what do i know im only 17 |

mini me
  dude you have the right idea and you will need a 1.5 head gasket you will have right at 11:1 comp and you will have to get ether a vtec conrtoller or a ex p28 ecu. the differance is that the 1.5 head has a 48cc head whill the 1.6 has a 42cc head in a d16z6 10.5:1 pistons are still -.4dish the 1.5s have flat to pistons you will get 15-20hp w/vtec contoller 20-25hp and its not a hard swap just take your time and it would be a good time to put in some forged pistions good luck see ya:frog: |
