Default high comp. b16a2 questions

probably a dumb question, but i have been wondering what all it would take to get my stock b16a2 with 10.2:1 comp. ratio up and around the 11's


i was thinking about doing CTR pistons, rods and crank. probably have the head shaved (but how much do i have to shave off) and port and polished. thinner headgasket. things like that

what else could i possibly do to have the comp. ration raised.

i wanna do a high comp. all motor setup.

thanks for all the serious and entertaining replies

Hmmm... from what I can dig up, the CTR pistons alone get you up in the 11 range.
The typical high-compression build for the Integra motors gets a GSR head for about 0.2 more compression, but I don't know if that works for the B16 block.

EDIT:
Found a good link - should help you a lot!

thanks for that link.
best bet with the setup i have is the CTP pistons, and just have my connecting rods milled 1mm on each side.
