Vtec head question

[MOORESPEED12]

Friend of mine is going turbo with his GSR and he was wondering which head would be best for turbo on a GSR block. A B16a or a GSR head. He's going to be running 9.5:1 comp. pistons. Thanks for any help.

a gsr head will yeild slightly higher compression than the b16(.2) but supposedly a b16 head will flow about 5% more air than a gsr. but gsr cams will work better for boost than b16's, hope that helps

i would run the B16 head with CTR or ITR valve springs, GSR intake cam, and ITR exhaust cam.... Ive seen some pretty decent numbers from that set up....
