Does the ctr head really flow any better than the itr head, or does it just raise the comp?

CTR = Civic Type R
ITR = Integra Type R

ITR Tranny = $900-$1300
ITR Head = $700-$1100

Check the classified forums. Last I checked, ITR trannys were ~$800. I'm not sure about the heads, but expect them to cost a pretty penny too.

The ITR and B16 trannys are basically the same. The only advantage that the ITR tranny has is that it comes equipped with an LSD. A B16 tranny and aftermarket LSD can be purchased for less.

If you want a type R head, go with whichever is cheaper. Whatever differences there are, they are minor.

The CTR crap is usually more expensive than ITR crap.
