No specific experience with it, but after playing with some compression calculators I'm coming up with 12-13:1. What are your goals with this build?

Again, not a lot of experience here, but I haven't heard of any aftermarket fuel management systems that would be appropriate.

Taken from D-Series.org:

The trickiest thing about this engine is the tuning. Because of the multitude of valve operations, the ECU programming is complex. The P2J ecu is OBD2, so you can only run that with a stock-ish engine.

A standalone system is the only thing that could possibly do this engine justice, but an IMMENSE amount of tuning and dyno time is necessary to squeeze the full potential from the engine.

Personally, I'd see about finding a Z7 block to mate with the head. It's a fantastic engine.
