b16 or lsvtec
well the b16 in my sol is needing a rebuild i was wondering if i should go with ctr pistons in the b16 block or go ls/vtec with either b16 or ctr pistons?

personally i like ls vtec but if your going to use the ctr pistons do not get a gsr head if u want to use pump gas! i almost made that mistake my compression would have been around 13

ls vtec all the way. Use your b16a pistons along with the vtec oil/water pumps. Make sure you use arp rod bolts and head studs. I have recently just built a ls vtec and the motor feels quite a bit stronger than my gsr (p30 pistons, portflow valvetrain, ctr camshafts) motor. I have yet to really rip on the motor as it only has 200 miles on it so far. The ls vtec def. has the torque the gsr/b16a lack down low.
