go with the b16a head or b18c5 head if you can find one. here's the order of choices you should go with regarding heads from what i was told:

1. CTR head (I think the engine code is b16b)
2. ITR head (b18c5)
3. b16a
4. b18c1

I was told this by the import shop near my house, the reason the b16a head is better is because it flows better than the b18 head. I'm saving up for an lsvtec job myself. I've decided to go with the b16a head cuz you can come by those cheaper and the ITR intake manifold will fit on it.

since your engine is coming from a 92 teg, it is pre-obd or obdI, i'm not sure which. but you can take the ecu from a gen. 1 b16a which shouldn't be more than $275.

as for the bottom end, I was just going to put CTR pistons in cuz i'm going to run n/a. if you want to run boost, I recommend forging the bottom end to handle the boost.
