Default Compression with these pistons in ls/vtec

What would the compression in an ls/vtec with B16 head be with:

B16 pistons (US and JDM)
ITR pistons (US and JDM)
CTR's

Which ones do you run/recommend?

Thanks

Just go here for all your OEM B series compression ratio questions. Just click and drag the components that you'll be using, and you'll get your numbers.

Thanks guys

I tried that calculator thing last when I was looking at the new hybrid.honda-perf page and I couldn't get it to work.

Anyone know the formula?

You might be missing some plugin or something. It works great for me, and many others.
