Default Best honda OEM pistons for B18C1 and p72 head...

What would the best piston set up be for the following criteria:
1. 93 octane unleaded
2. CTR or ITR cams
3. 8500 rpm redline
4. I/H/E equipped vehicle
5. stock OEM head gasket
6. tuning of course

jdm p30, p73 00, or CTR's??? Any advantages as far as weight, quality, availability?

I'd go with some CTR pistons.. Higher Compression, more gains, but will still work with 93 octane

Depends on your budget. But JDM OEM Type-r pistons are the best bang for your buck with P72 head. If you have the $$$ go with FORGED pistons like TODA.

JDM P30 would be a good buy. It would put you in the mid 11's. Not too harsh, but no too mild..

I have some USDM ITR standardbore pistons for sale that would be adirect swap. $140 US shipped.

It wouldbump your compression up from 10:1 to about 10.9:1. Perfect for not having to worry about detonation etc.
