I have a running 1990 b16a and I also have a b16a2 block, with crank and rods.....I was wondering how much ctr pistons would raise the compression....and also what rods i should use on what block...a or a2??? thanx

civic type R piston very compression depend on what setup is and such. i know from the factory its like 12 to 1 compression in the CTR motors.

its will give you a good bump of compression tho for a b16a.

about the whole rods how high are you plaining reving ?

if you are going to rev high like 8500+ i would atleast go with type R rods cause the b series wont hold up much more then that. i would get a nice set of aftermarket like eagle or crower then you would be alot safer and they can handle high reving.

if you need any more info just let me know hope everything work out.

should be around 11.5:1 in a b16a , they are 12.5:1 in a b16B (ctr)

I'm not 100% sure though...

use this calculator here, it's at least a rough estimate of where you'll end up at
