i have a 100% stock 1995 gsr that im gona be boosting here in a few months. yesterday i picked up a b16a2 head for cheep.

my question is, is it worth my time to build up and swap the b16 head on to my gsr before i boost? or should i just sale the b16 head and build up my gsr head?

 

They flow almost the same amount, just keep the gsr head on there.

 

No, the flow is not the same. The b16 head flows better......"the poor man's type-r conversion"

 

Sell the head, get a new intake manifold and call it a day.

Yes, the heads flow different, but if you're boosting, it won't matter much.

 

Swapping from a GSR head to a B16 head, you will decrease the compression ratio. And since you are going boost anyway, the drop in compression ratio will be a bonus for you

 

No need to make things difficult, keep the gsr head, you'll have the gsr cams already which is a plus. Alaniz tested the two heads and they flowed similiar, I think the b16 slightly outflowed it, but It wont make much of any different. The gsr however yields a higher compression, so in the end it the results are not worth the trouble.
Just sell the b16 head, and use that $$ to better your setup, maybe an Intake manifold or something of that nature.

 

thanks guys, the only reason i wanted to use the head is so my car dosent have any downtime while i got head work.

but i guess your right i might as well sell the b16 head and just use my stock gsr head.

anyone wana trade something for it?

 

Is it a complete head?

 

no its not
