CTR piston compression

Is there any thing that needs to be done w/ the head of a b16a2 when installing ctr pistons. My research tells me that they have high compression and I want to play it safe as possible. Holla @ me

Re: CTR piston compression (B16b2b)

You should be ok. I believe the rods needs to be shaved aprx. 1mm for the pistons. Not totally sure. As always, should check clearances.. CTR pistons with CTR cams seem to be a very nice upgrade for the money.. If you want more power try some Skunk2 Stage 1s or 2s or Toda Bs..
