Type R pistons in a B16 decrease compression

Look in the Hybrid section for your swap questions. They have a FAQ with answers to many different swap questions.

ITR or CTR pistons?

That's just as vague as his question.

ITR's will decrease compression.

CTR's will increase compression.

you need 2 mounts from the si the one behind the engine by the firewall and the tranny mount. and for hte harness just use yours, but you have to repin some wires, extend some and add some.
