Hey,
I have a car with a jdm d15b that blew up. I bought another jdm d15b from an importer and that turned out to be bad. I was offered a replacement but they only have the jdm d16a in stock (jdm 1.6 vtec). I have a turbo setup with 450cc injectors tuned on crome in a p08.
Will I likely have a real different tune? would I be able to drive the car until I retune? I figure my old tune would be a good base map since it ran rich.. the motors are only a 100cc diference if I understand correctly.
Are any of the parts different? I dont want to run into compatibility issues during the swap process. I know I'll have to return the timing belt, water pump, oil pump that I bought for the d15b and get some for the d16a. If anything should getting parts be easier since its pretty much a d16z6?
What would ideal compression be for the jdm d16a?
Any advice is appriciated.. I already soaked up as much as I could through google.
