yes it would, imo i wouldnt change out the cams because they would already have type r cams.

Nope, these are not Type R cams. These are GSR cams. Still, with that head you will bump CR a bit. You can use zealautowerks calculator to check how much. Also, B16's are known as the "torqueless wonder". Bear in mind that you cannot fit the B16 intake manny onto the C4 head, as bolt pattern is a bit different BUT if you have the intake manifold of the C4 head, you can use it. It has IABs which you may hookup and re-do your ECU to P72 base so it can control the IABs and gain a reasonable amount of torque.
