would the piston from a 2200 sfi(98/02) work in a 2.2 (95/97) sibnce the compression ratio is higher than on the 2.2(8.5:1 i think) in a 2200(9.1) i would gain some power (theorically) at an affordable price and it will not be a drastic change so my fuel delivery system will not need to be upgraded ! am I right ????

both of the bores are 89mm or 3.5 inches.

If you are going to go through that much trouble, why not just put forged ones in? New-for-new, forged pistons aren't really any more expensive than stock.

true.... usually lighter and stronger... less rotating mass...well mass on the rotating assembly...rev quicker.
