B16 Bottom End, Itr Head.

[97 Ex/SiR]

if i put an ITR head on my B16 what sort of power increase can be expected? oh, and will the redline raise to 8,600?? i might have the opertunity to buy one for $350. the kid needs money badly...

thanks.

umm a b16 head and a type r head are nearly identical. the only difference would be the cams, and the minor porting they do from the factory. you might gain a little bit. ohh yeah i forgot one thing, they have dual springs all the way around.

You won't really notice any gains unless the cams come with it.

and i dont think the ITR head is a direct bolt on to the b16 block.... is it?

[Hybrid_Coupe]

Yes direct bolt on, i also found out there are differences in the valve seat cut, the valve guid cut. all in all, i was talking to my buddy and if you got the cams with it, and it is a true type r head you might notice a gain of between 15-20hp.

will you get the manifold to match the port and polish? if not dont count on all 20 ponies

oh, i thought the B16 intake manifold was very good flowing as well.. whatever, i dunno about the manifold.
