Default PoorMan's Type R ?

So right now I have a full GSR swap in my EK with Skunk2 internals.
If I get a b16 head and swap everything over, would that make it gain more power? And why?

what does any of that have to do with poorman itr setup?

people say that the b16 head flows better but i dont think that there is any truth to that...i really dont know much about flow specs so i couldnt tell u...however the gsr head yields higher compression than the b16 head and u would probably want that if ur all motor...if i were u i would just get a good p'n'p for the gsr head.....

Stock for stock the b16 may flow better, but the higher combustion chamber roof and bigger quench pads make it a better canidate for building an na head.

You'll be giving up some compression with the B16 head.

u still need to run an oil line from the block to the head
as well as get the dowel pins matched up...
some will say hat u should change the rod bolts...but u will be fine with the stock ones on a mild build

You have a good starting setup already. Your just gambling swaping the heads. Every head will flow diffrent, so saying a B16 head outflows a GSR bias.
