with ITR P73-A pistons = 9.8:1 (basically lowers the c/r) (JDM ITR p73-0 at about 10.2:1, basically stock b16a)

CTR should yield close to 10.8:1 which is what you want for NA setup....

or simply stick with P30 or PR3 pistons, since the ITR/CTR will require some modification to the rod...

yeah it will be same because the heads on the b16 and b18c5's are the same when it comes to the shape, if it were a gsr head that would be a whole different story.

allmtr, u r right, the other guys r wrong. its all about the dome. no matter what motor the higher the dome the more compression. 11.1:1 is about right for P73 pistons in a B16.

False. P73 will lower. PCT is the only oem piston that will raise compression.
