Default B16 pistons in a B18 motor....

in conversation i heard that the pistons from a b16 will increase the compression on the GSR motor...
im planning on this swap but wanted to know if anyone is running this setup...

has anyone done this and what are the benefits?

this is true....the B16 pistons have a bit more compression than the GSR, but the GSR's head has better compression than the B16's......but to answer ur ?? yes
