Default JDM B16 Pistons?

Sorry guys I searched . I been out the scene for a while and Im trying to return my turbo car to stock i got a stock head already . The motor is a 1st gen jdm b16 with some 20 over pistons in it making it have 8.5:1 compression . My old mechanic told me to find a set of jdm 20over b16 pistons, these would be pr3 right ? Well if Im right can someone point me in the direction of where I can get some new pr3 20 over pistons complete with rings ?

what you are looking for is p30 pistons.

Your assumption is incorrect.Standard is standard (81mm).Plus .25 (mm) is (81.25mm) or about .010".Twenty over would be +.50mm (81.50) or +.020".

He said he owns a first gen b16, in which case he is right to think pr3 pistons.

p30's will just make more power, and they are a hair lighter then the pr3's
