As far as I know, putting a D16y8/z6 head on a DX motor produces around the same numbers as that motor, about125-130 hp, and like 110 tq. Is it worth it? It's cheap, and easy to do, but it still won't be that fast until you do other (real) mods, internals, F/I, etc. Forced induction is NOT a good idea with a D15, so I would personally just get a whole SOHC VTEC motor. But it still won't be fast. But a much better platform to start with for turbo. And a cheap, easy motor to find. But that's just me.
