making B16A as reliable as my B18C6
When I want high boost on an B16A, do I have to change the valves or can I leave the stockers in?
How much whp will I get on 9:1 cr ratio, about 300whp?
What else should be take care when I built fully an turboed B16A engine?
I know the usual stuff like cam gears, standalone, rods, gauges, clutch, etc................but what will I need on the B16A what the B18C has already in stock condition like better valves than B16A.

Re: making B16A as reliable as my B18C6 (austrian type-R)
B16 is just as reliable as gsr, it has better rod ratio, loves revs just not *** torque"E"B16 has the same valves as gsr, just do the standard ****, good valves good spring, and retainers, ferrera comes to mine , good piston rod combo, and sleeve it if you can, I ran my b16 every were on 18 pounds of boost to 23 pounds motor was great. only benefit gsr has is the main cap brace, bvut for dragracing it does not matter especially for 300whp, if you are that worried you could also get aebs main bolts they are arp's I believe, good investment, but I run a b20 and would trust a built b16 over b20 any day of the week, but I love torque,also what is a b18c6?, Jason

Re: making B16A as reliable as my B18C6 (GSteg)
Do I realy need stronger valve springs when I stay with stock redline. I use crower springs and retainers, cause I wanted to up my revs with the JRSC, but I have now turbo and rev only to 8800, so I don't see the need of it. Also, I have ITR valves, what valves should I take with B16A high boost engine?
