head swap...d15b2
can i do a headswap on the d15b2 but keep the dpfi? I know it sounds crazy, but I kind of like having dpfi, it's for a daily driver but I want to do something more to the motor. the wiring is a little weird on the car so i'd prefer not to muck around with converting to mpfi. i currently have exhaust, intake, header... what else that's fairly easy could I do?

Spend the money on a different car, or on a different engine. You'll spend a lot of money for very small gains on a D15, especially with 20-something year old DPFI. You're dealing with the bottom of the barrel, fundamentally handicapped economy engine.

Re: head swap...d15b2
If you do the head swap(I'm assuming a vtec one), you'll need to convert to mpfi and...(this is from honda-tech)For a Z6 mini-me swap you’ll need four basic things: a D16Z6 cylinder head (including valve cover, distributor, spark plugs, spark plug wires etc), D16Z6 timing belt, D16Y8 head gasket (D16Z6 works well also, but Y8 is a better, metal gasket) and P28 ECU (make sure you get an auto ECU for an auto, manual for manual).
