This a good setup?

I have heard that you could gain some hp just from an ITR intake cam. Should I go with an ITR intake cam and leave my GSR exhaust cam on, OR go all out CTR intake and exhuast cams?

My second question is. Should I go with JDM ITR spec pistons or CTR pistons for my GSR head?

I want to hear people's opinion. I know that with CTR pistons my compression would be in the 12:1.

Nope, it'll be closer to 13 and no I don't think 13:1 on OEM cams is a great ideal.

And for the price of CTRs you could go a smidge bigger with some BC spec3's or something similar.
And definately dont go with CTR pistons...the last guy on here who did that was leaving imprints in the quench pads of his head...
