CP 12.5 Pistons but which one???
I was planning on running OEM B16 pistons in order to raise my compression on my LSVtec but ive decided to go higher 12.5 and have been looking on CP's website but they have two types i guess regular and x style forged. Im just tryin to figure out which one would be best for my set-up. Any suggestions???

i believe there was some conflict between CTR pistons and a GSR head as far as clearance

so there is some clearance issues.. is there much difference in compression between the B16's and 12.5 x style
