Default P73 JDM pistons or stay with P72 JDM pistons?

Will I get that much more power ($$$) tuning with JDM P73 vs JDM P72 in there now?

Is It worth the money and time?
JDM B18C Sir-G
Head has no porting
Buddy club spec 3+ cams/skunk2 gears gears
skunk2 valvesrpings/retainers
Skunk 2 IM

I think stock comp ratio is 10.6 on a JDM B18C motor.
These new cams will prob yield 11.0

You will make pretty decent power, but a lot of people i know that rocked the buddyclub 3+ cams ended up getting rid of them and getting skunk2 stage 1's because they weren't satisfied with top end since these cams were designed for mid range. It also depends on what header you're running and exhaust setup. I would recommend hytech copy header if you're on a budget.. there was a thread a while back.. civic with jdm gsr motor and buddyclub 3+ made 178-179whp/13x tq tuned at whitfield racing i believe.

go with JDM P73.. It's always better to have more compression in case you plan on upgrading to bigger cams in the future.

But isn't 10.6 comp ratio high enough to bump skunk2 stg 2 cams (not pro)?

I seen people run skunk2 stage 2's with gsr pistons, but i would still prefer 11:1
