    Default help me decide

    ok im deciding on which motor to put in a hatch that im getting, i plan on boosting it almost right after i get it, but im putting a b series motor in it and am deciding a jdm b16A,LS motor, or a GSR...now i have been told that lower compression engines are better for boost so therefore the jdm ls motor would be the way to go with a 9.4 compression ratio and the B16 and the GSR having 10.4 and 10.6 but sum one has also told me that gsr motors are really good for boosting, the thing i dont get is that the GSR motor has the most compression out of all of the motors,sum1 please help me decide lol

    from my understading, correct me if im wrong, b16s are the worst of the three due to ring landings and thats why gsrs are good(with the right tune). Although ls motors have better CR, they arent as rev happy.
