    Nah Homey. A Poor Man's Type R is a GSR bottom-end with a b16 head.

    but i heard that the b16 head works better then the gsr...
    I have heard that the B16 head flows slightly better, but if im going with a stock ls/vtec, the gsr will yeild a higher compression ratio. Higher CR = More HP!

    Dammn it. I should have made this a poll. Oh well...
