Default B18 Pistons - Highest compression???

Hi guys, I've searched many places but was unable to find this info....So I ask here...

As for my next project, I want to build a brand new Type R motor. I am looking for RM valvetrain but as for the bottom end, I was thinking about resleeving the block to maybe 84 - 84.5 (maybe w/ golden eagle or darton sleeves) But my question is, what's the highest compression piston I can go with? This will not use turbo.

1. passing emission - highest compression?
2. donot passing eimission - highest compression?

Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanx guys

Oh trust me, money isn't an issue....I'll be getting a brand new type r engine w/ lsd tranny straight from dealer....I know this project will cost me alot...I'm guessing, near 30G after I'm done with the whole car...

30gs for only 230-250whp, youll get more than that from 30grand, ive only spent about 4 grand and i have about 250, with 30grand you should be able to get atleast 350. No im not turboed either, ported heads and 11:1 compression and bolt ons.
