ITR pistons in b16
ok i've heard that itr pistons would actually lower my compression. so i was wondering if this is true of the jdm pistons or if its only the usdm version that lowers the compression. thanks.

The answer is yes, it "will" lower your compression. A B16 piston has a higher dome than ones found in a B18C5

Re: ITR pistons in b16
well the reason i ask is because there is a rebuild kit on ebay that comes with itr pistons for $270. im not trying to increase power i just dont wanna lose much... so could i tell the difference if i did this? thanks

um, you really wouldn;t feel a major difference between pistons, i personally reccomend JDM p30 B16 pistons, but you really wont loose much with ITR pistons
