Default Oil sqirters question

I'm building a boosted b16 that will have around 400-450hp. I'm getting a lot of different opinions about whether or not to use the oil aquirters or plug them. I have forged crower pistons and forged crower connecting rods. They're discontinued from Honda and it's been a huge struggle trying to find them online that are in good shape.

I'd use them. Your wrist pins would probably enjoy being lubricated consistently. That said, I've done lap racing without them in B20 blocks, and no issues.

You’ll be fine without them. I’ve tuned tons of setups without them and never had any issues.
