Lower compression for more boost, more displacement to spool the turbo.

1000 posts and you're asking such a simple question like that? Somethings wrong.

The B16B is a waste of time and money, that's why. It's a "JDM Bling" motor.

You can use any turbo kit that will fit the B18C5 on it after you drop the compression. Same deal with the C5.

b16 kits would also work except for downpipe clearance.

B16B is nothing special compared to the B18's counterparts
