b18c had a .2 higher compression ratio b/c of it having no quench pads. it flows good

b16a /itr head is best. a correctally ported and polished b16a head can outflow an equally ported and polished itr head. so its your choice.

unless you plan on seriously racing with this car, whichever you can get cheapest is the best.

itr is just a fancy B16 head. go with the b16 head and spend the rest of your money else where.
