gsr head = small combustion chamber
b16 head = larger combustion chamber
so a b16 head on a gsr block would lower the compression compared to a stock gsr motor so you would be slower than a stock gsr but not sure how it would compare to a stock b16

it will lower the compression ratio from stock GSR's 10:1 to around 9.8:1.
you will DEFINITELY feel an increase in torque. You may make a little less than a stock GSR in power though. I am currently running this setup in my car.
