Default what kind of power would a gsr with b16a2 pistons make?

this guy told me he got a compression of 11.5 and he said made 185whp from that and a skunk2 manifold, but it didn't feel as powerful as my friend gsr with i/h/e/im

if your gonna swap pistons why not just go with oversized jdm ITR or CTR... i mean if your looking for more compression that is...

oh i'm not, i'm trying to do a b20vtec setup. i was talking about this guy who has a hatch for sale with that setup. it just didn't seem like it had that much power compared to my friend civic.

ctr's cr is too high to run on 91 octane if you ask me
and b16 pistons will yeild more cr than itr pistons

One of my old setup I put down 185hp as well with a poorman ITR setup. All the internals was OEM minus the T/B. It took alot of hours on the dyno to get that, before it was something like 179 but was very lean most of the RPMs.
