for the first part.. yes u can use the oil/water pump off the b16 and u need either a gsr or itr timming belt.. same part number. and ur compression ratio should be around 11.6:1 im guessing.. not sure tho

Everything looks good to me. I've heard bad things about UR pulleys but I've had one on a GSR motor Noproblems, B16 no problems and one my h22 and still no problems. The only thing that might annoy you is your exhaust will be raspy with no cat but it costs less then buyin a new one.

Read the ctr piston wirte under the all Motor forum. compression wil actually be close to 13:1 then 11:1 Make sure you have upgraded injectors.

well i got the pulleys free so thats cool and a lot of people talk **** about pulleys but from what i have seen they are worth it they do put some power dowm and my friends are still running pulleys for like 3, 4 years no problems... the apex N1 2.5' exhaust with test pipe i know that when you hit VTEC it gets LOUDDD but that cool with me. in the highway it's not loud i actually dont hear it with the windos down.

i'm a little comfused about compression i don't wanna be too high even tough we have 93 octane in FL and i will be using a hondata s100 so. will be better to run ITR pistons than CTR 's???? actually i work in a tranny shop so the tranny will be done by me but everthing else will be dome with the shop next to me and i will be there you know helping out they have bulit 4 lsvtecs and they are running good daily drivers and thats why i trust then ... thanks for evrything man

You didn't specify your head gasket if you are going OEM 3 layer or thinner but according to this compression calculator with nothing taken off the head or block and a stock 3 layer gasket, you are looking at 12.3:1, it will be fine on 93 with a good tune.

read the post in allmotor forum... it tells you why c-speed and other compression calcs are off, only with the CTR piston though.
