if your using nitrous you want lower compression

i disagree, i think keeping the compression the same or setting it at about 10:1 would be perfect, with the proper tuning of course

why? its safer to run lower compression

true but tuned it would be safe and perform somewhat better

exactly, same applies to turbo/supercharged, yes its safer to run lower compression, but on a boosted motor with lower compression you will have more lag and not necessairly make more power then a higher compression motor running lower boost. both tuned properly of course

arent the b20z's harder to find because theyre newer and only u.s.? i'm pretty sure the jdm b20 is the same as the usdm b20b, just get the B, its easier to get. and probably cheaper too, and just use your stock civic harness with the ls ecu and intake manifold
