in General in Android, I think you have to change your Kernel so that it support Overclocking, it doesn't mean you have to flash the whole ROM, there might be Kernel support "stock ROM" for Xperia Z that also have overclock functions.
Not too sure if you have to unlock your bootloader or not though, you need to do some research on the Kernel first.
Hope it helps

No you do not need to unlock bootloader.

This is only Myths about that.
Real dual touch for synaptic devices.
Higher max CPU overclock frequency.
Sim unlock your phone
GPU overclock.
Unlocked bootloader allows us flash updated kernels.
And new *fully working* kernel allow do everything
Here you might need to take a look at this:

I am using GingerCruzt 8.4 that is the most similar to stock rom. Here is the rom thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1101691 and here are some screenshots of the rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1101691.
P.s. Hit thanks if this helped
To the OP, no, we cant because the hardware of the two phones is completely different.

[Q] Custom kernels for incredible S

Hello, im a Sony user and I just switched to htc. I want to know what are the custom kernels available and how to flash them. The method I used for Sony won't work here I guess.

No difference at all
I didn't try installing x8's rom on w8.might be possible by flashing x8's stock 2.1.1 firmware.
+u can root,install recovery with flash tools application (for windows etc)
U don't need to unlock bootloader now (it's risky! May damage phone {we call hard brick})

I wonder why Sony made W8 while there was X8
Sent from my W8 using xda app-developers app
well actually as leecorp said there are clone models
W8 is nothing but a X8 with Walkman moniker and Android platform. It looks like Sony Ericsson Xperia X8, the difference being the body design, a walkman app and the name walkman on its body
yes you can install X8 roms on W8.
@gogeta
they made W8 so that people can get choice of the body and a W8 is a completely different phone for layman and it is priced bit more than X8 so basically to rob people not knowing the difference
The two phones are very identical in both design and in hardware specifications. The X8 come under Xperia range of smartphone and W8 under Walkman range of smartphone.So any rom for the X8 is a rom for the W8 and any rom for the W8 is a rom for the X8

It is normal Sony Ericsson's policy. Look on other old walkman phones. All of them is based on other non walkman phones. For example: w200 and k510, w800 and k750, w610 and k550.
Both are same
W8 has music player as Walkman
X8 has music as music
Otherwise no difference ...only sound quality improved in w8
Sent from my X8 using xda app-developers app
Yes you can
there is particularly no difference in the firmware...so you can do it without any hesitation......
And I forgot to mention one thing above. The W8 speaker is much more better than the X8's. Probably because its Walkman branded.

Don't you have the T-Mobile US branded variant of the Z (C6606)? If so, you cannot flash any custom kernel as your bootloader cannot be unlocked. (I know your signature says C6603, but the model number changes if you flash an unbranded rom).
To check for yourself if your bootloader can be unlocked, enter *#*#7378423#*#* in the dialler, then look in Service info, Configuration.

So does that mean I can't install roms either?? I can boot into recovery and all that

You can flash stock based roms only. Anything that requires a custom kernel (CM/AOSP/AOKP/PAC etc) are not able to be flashed on a locked bootloader.
