Actually, in stock form the GSR is a better coice. You will yield a slightly higher static compression ratio, in turn make more power. I would drop the stock IAB intake manifold though.

You will lose compression. Bottom line, you will lose power.

Well, you didn't say that you were putting a blower on it! I say strap the b16a head on and let it eat. It will be just fine.
