Default what pistons should i do?

well i dont know what pistons i should use in my set up?
i got a b16 in my crx
i can get CTR pistons for $300 can shipped.. what u all think about that price?
i want my comp to be around 11.5.1
if i use these pistons it only brings it up to 10.8 and a 2 ply head gasket will bring it up to 11.2 maybe
would high comp valves vring it up the diff?

Unfortunetly the B16A isn't really supported well by the aftermarket for high compression N/A. Most companys like JE, CP, Arias etc... OTS pistons between 81-81.5mm are only from about 8:1 - 10.5:1. Arias makes 85mm 12.1:1 but that would require sleeving. Probably gonna have to go custom. Don't know if Wiseco or Endyn makes stock bore in anything more then 10.5:1.

I do not think there will be any problems. You should always clay it with VTEC locked. Better to findout before than after damage has been done.

No, it's a direct swap.

With an OEM gasket I know for a fact you won't have piston to valve clearence from stock up to JUN III specs. Anything after that you will have to check. You should ALWAYS clay your motor whether it's a "direct swap" or not.
