<---Using long rods and custom CP pistons with raised wrist pins on my setup. You can special order just about any shelf piston design with a raised wrist pin for a custom piston price, which is usually only about 50-75 more than the shelf piston cost.
Not a lot of work in general, just really good head work. Like I said, the head is the major bottleneck in any small displacement, high output engine. Allow it to breathe, and you will be able to make the power.
my gsr with ctr pistons, gsr rods and crank, b16 head w/ s2s2 cams and itr valvetrain, sick tune on crome dynoed at 198 to the wheels w/ no ac or ps. compression was 12.3 with milled head. id find it VERY hard to hit 200 with stock bore b16 imho.
question... why does everyone want to use the b16 head on everything... whats better about that than the gsr head, is it just a better combustion chamber?
Isn't the reason why people who buy b16's is their lower compression then the b18s?edit: And the b16s are easier to tune because fo their low compression so it's easy to boost high. And the b18s have higher compression so it's harder to tune to get the same boost levels, you do get more low end power with a b18.
and i've only seen a b16 break 200 when it's bored.
<noob at all this stuff, so don't flame. just point out i'm wrong.
