You will want to change out the pistons to raise up the compression first.
But once that is done, the difference between that and a b16a is night and day

Re: b16a head on a gsr block? (sgT)
You would kind of be makin a ITR motor. The only difference between an ITR head and ur B16A would be that the ITR is mildly ported and has a different valvetrain and camshafts. You would also want to change out the pistons for ITR or ur B16A's since the greater volume of the B16A head would put your C/R at about 9.8:1. Have fun!

why not try some ctr cams and pistons. cheaper than a gsr block and that will bring your cr up and the cams are much better than the us spec stuff.
