They will fit, but waste of time imo.....

The dones are so high, you never get a clean burn with them. Why not ditch the B16 and just upgrade to a lager engine that makes more power?

P30 pistons are from a B16, they are stock in jdm models, giving higher compression. This is why they are such a great option

I'd like to recommend using oversized pistons (81.5mm), which means you will need to bore out the block. It is much much better to do this (unless the engine has FRM).

In any event, make sure you do everything right the first time, seat the rings, and break it in. Also, might want to consider midgrade or even 92-93 octane fuel since the stock ECU isn't programmed for the higher compression pistons.

Running compression of 0.2:1 higher will not really make any difference. If you wanted to be correct about it, the OP could just buy a jdm P30 ecu

So if i were to purchase the P30 pistons will they be dropped right into the block and go on the rods with no modification ?

I would love to run these since i do have a built head on the side until later but if it is easier to just buy the oem b16 pistons then i might just go that route but do you rexcomend the p30s more ?? Let me know some options are choices that you could give me thanks man!!
