according to endyn testing both heads stock( confirm?)
gsr head flows better than b16 but not by much

if both ported to same specs and same size/type valves and everything else i dont see how they would be different.

its like saying , which piece of clay gonna make a better brick... depends on whos doing it.

if you have a type r head complete and stock. sell it and buy a b16 head.
the head and head work will cost about same as the money you make selling itr head

Depends on who is doing the porting.

Our B16 port flows 5-7 cfm better than our GSR. If you already have a block together, the GSR has a smaller chamber and will have more compression, but I can make the B16 chamber smaller pretty easily.

I have sold a lot more GSR heads than B16, so I have a lot more guys making big power on the GSR but its purely because that is what they started with. You will be within a few HP either way you go as long as you make the compression =.

For what its worth, I have a handful of people with stock GSR strokes making over 270 on simple setups and running low 11s @ up to 124 and one stock stroke with our GSR in its most basic form making over 300 and running 10s every pass...that is an 89x85 13.5:1 motor.

Go with Portflow they rock. Just stick with the Type R head and have Portflow go over it. A Pr3 and P72 heads will flow dam near the same, so close in fact that it is not really worth arguing over.

If I ever decide to waste a pile of money on an NA setup, my head will go to 4piston, FWIW.

so just to steal the thread for a second since we got head porting guys here.

i bought a skunk2 intake manifold thinking its a gsr but it was a b16 so i drilled the holes and portmatched the runners to gsr head and also cleaned up the casting.

i red somewhere that b16 and gsr intake runners are different angle.

would having a b16 IM on a gsr affect anything( power)
