Default B17a1 Plans

Ive had my '92 GSR for about a month now and Im starting to debate which route to take in building it. Im not too familiar with the b17a1 and what its capable of so I need some opinions of what can make more power. So far only mods are, short ram, custom 2.5" straight pipe to muffler, and Eibach Sportline 2.5" lowering springs. I want a hatch more than this car but I just want to know what this car is capable of and what some of your opinions are if this were your car. I think the c/r is 9.7:1, right? All opinions matter, thanks in advance.

Boost it, it's the same as a B16.

Hes right, it the American version of the B16a1.

Personally, I'd go all motor... turbo would seem kinda pointless for a high compression motor... but thats just me .

i do belive the compression is 9:5:1. and it'll be a pain to try to put a jrsc on that car. it will hit the firewall, and i don't know too much on the vortech.

It's not a high compression engine, hence my saying boost.
