Re: Spoon Piston (FreddyR)
seriously thinking to get a piston that will raise the C/R
which one would u guys recommand?
i road race once every two month at least
should i get the Spoon ITR or JDM CTR??
would i be running too high in C/R with the CTR piston??

Re: Spoon Piston (StinkyTofu)
thats what i'm thinking u know...?
Spoon piston and 2 layer of gasket...
but that comes out 11.7 C/R
its the same if u just have the JDM CTR with 3 layers of gaskets.....

Oh wait nevermind, for some reason i thought CTR pistons in an ITR yielded 12.0:01 compression. After going to c-speedracing.com, definitely go with the CTR pistons and OEM gasket.

Re: Spoon Piston (sgT)
B16A or B16B piston only. cheaper to get a thinner gasket than spend money
on another set of ITR pistons for the same result.

Re: Spoon Piston (SPOON EK9R)
Hey Freddy,
ITs wayne...dont know if you remember me....anywayz, heard you got many new toys for your car...
I'm thinking about raising CR too...my plan is CTR pistons, which will raise cr to about 11.2 on a type R plus mugen headgasket, which adds another .2 or .3 so about 11.5. I think 11.5 is safe to run with 91 octane
Oh well...good luck...let's meet up sometimes

Re: Spoon Piston (Reid)
wrong.
They did offer a balanced CTR piston set....I dunno if they still do though. I bought a set for my B17A engine build up back in 99 (aka blacksheep), when Eric B. was in Japan..

Re: Spoon Piston (Katman)
even if you are running big cams spoon pistons and a thiner head gasket is fine. CTR pistons is kinda overkill. I dunno if i would put CTR pistons in my car, but thats me.

That's why I said Spoon doesn't offer a balanced PCT piston set.
They are no longer offering the pistons.
