Default making power on a gsr

so far i been putting my motor together little by little and this is what im thinking for a 1.8 beast

i have my head with skunk 2 springs and retiners, hytech headers, skunk 2 pro 2 cam, skunk 2 intake manifold,aem v2 intake, apexi world sport exhust, 2.5 straight pipe and a s200 hondata. i was thinking of ctr pistons or should i go with a different bottom end setup. a little help would go a long way.

how much power are you wanting to make?

i say you only need one header, ditch that intake and get a 3'' arm with bpi stack, ditch the exhaust and get something 2.5'', and something to tune with. until we know your power goals cant really recommend anything else.

ctr pistons in a gsr, you will have very very high compression. I don't know if that's practical for daily driving.

ctr pistons in a gsr is asking for high cr....if you have poor and low gas such as cali...i shouldnt recommend it becasue your motor can ping a lot! but if you have it properly tuned its good...lots of fun!goodluck!
