I'm pretty sure there's only one set of oem rings for the stock bore size, no matter the motor, as long as it's b-series 81mm.

OEM rings run around $100, many builders use the Hastings rings because they are high quality and run around $50 from there web site.

Nice parts you have for your build, I have the same parts except for PR3 pistons instead. I was wondering how you were going to tune this build? I was going to use a chipped P28 with a basemap taylored to these mods for a temp solution until I can get it dyno-tuned. How about you?

crome or neptune seems to be a worthy engine management..if you have a good tuner in your area...

my friend is using neptune making 202whp on a 1.8l b16...

I use Nippon Piston Ring.. they supply rings to Honda so it's kind of OEM but cheaper. Works for me!

Ya, I have seen those on Ebay for $50 also, I just haven't seen too many builds using them or I would try them.
