| I am looking for a d16y8 cylinder head...it doesnt have to be rebuilt or reman., actually i prefer it be inop as i am going to work it myself. Also, is a d16 a good platform for a turbo with out doing work to reduce the compression ratio? What is a common psi to run daily with/with out lowering the C.R. |

| As far as looking for a cylinder head, you want to post that in the for sale section. d16 is good, alot of people use that to boost. You should be able to get away with 6psi on a small turbo, but you will need tuning. |
