Default B16 Pistons in GSR?

I just cracked a piston in my b16 and I'm alittle confused on what to do. This motor was just a budget build to gain all the knowledge I could when going boost. I'm confused on whether I should just replace with stock pistons or buy low comp forged pistons.

I'm building a gsr for next year that I wanted to spend the money on and I was curious if I bought 9:1 pistons for the b16 would they work in the gsr?

Thanks

B16 pistons in a gsr will yeild higher compression. Tried to work it out on the computers and it looks like it will be about .8 compression higher in a GSR. So if you ordered 9:1 your bout 10:1 (still very acceptable for boost)
