ok i have a question i been trying to look it up but can't find alot about it.

is a stock gsr faster than doing a b16 with a gsr head? i thought about pulling my gsr and doing it or just pulling the head off my car and putting a spoon head gasket on that is suppose to help increase the compression alittle...

 

why would you want to decrease displacement and torque by replacing your 1.8 with a 1.6, mod your gsr, do the headgasket if your wanting to raise compression a bit, granted youll only get like .2 raise in ratio and you really wont gain any power from it. if you work the gsr head, mill it,get a better intake manifold and some bigger cams and tune it, your gsr will be great. hell you could always swap the pistons out when you do the headgasket and put some high compression jammies in there.

high compression pistons, thin headgasket, mild port and polish, cams and intake manifold, lightweight flywheel and some tuning- FUN ASS MOTOR.

 

ya i was only asking cause my friend got a b16 block completely rebuilt with 0 miles and i can get it for a steal thats only reason i was just trying to see if it make around same power cause i just want a 0 mile motor

 

well hell if you can get it for cheap than get it. if anything i would get it, work the b16 head than put it on your gsr.

 

its only the b16 block no head or nothing i was just trying to see if it be any kinda gain

 

put the b16 pistons in the gsr block and get a b16 head
