d15z1 question

[skipntampa]

After I aquire this swap, I will most likely look into performance upgrades for a little more umph. I was planning for some simple I/H/E, but was concerned that the fuel economy of the motor will be reduced. In no means am I looking for a monster, but im sure it could stand to be more peppy. Anyone in here have experiance with this motor, and upgrades?

even after I had turbo'd my z1, I am still getting 20+ miles to the gallon depending on my driving style.

anyone know where I can find a d15z1, ive only just heard about these motors recently.

`92-`95 Civic VX, that's it unless you can find an importer with a D15B VTEC-E.
