Why would you wonder about reliability if both are OEM factory specifications? It will run absolutely fine. Do some research my friend!

Exactly. ITR and b16 heads are the same cast. Not completely sure why you want to run itb's on a motor your going to drive everyday and keep "stock".

The all motor combination you have planned out won't have the "power" you search for. And as stated, getting on the dyno would be senseless. A base map will do just fine.
