Default which cam is better gsr, or type r?

its going into my b16. Is it worth the extra money for the type r's or should I go with the gsr's? Is there that big of a difference.

I believe Type-R cams are the most aggressive ones compared to b16as and GSR's. There were couple of threads way back about this issue. Try a search and you will find good info on them. Not sure if B16B's and B18C (Type-R) are equal, but I'm sure B16B cams will work really nice in your B16.

Seems like ITR/CTR > GSR = B16AII > B16AI cams

I believe B16B and 00-01 USDM ITR cams are the most aggressive.
