stock sized forged pistons
Monday, May 22, 2006 7:12 PM
Does anynone know where I can get some stock sized forget pistons? I am planning on adding juice so I don't want to raise my compression (I heard the engine wears out quicker) along with it. But I also want to keep my internals nice and strong for when I do juice it up. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

You can get any compression you want even tough you oversize you pistons.

Check Karo at carcustoms.net He'll get you want you want. Oversize the block and make sure everything is round and nice. Then order the pistons teh size you need and the compression you want.

your engine does not "wear out quicker" from higher compression, as long as the increase is within reason and you have tuned the ecu so that you are not getting any detonation. You've got an eco right? You've already got 10:1 compression, and thats considered fairly high. You can go to 12:1 if you wanted to as long as you tune properly for it.

Eco's come stock with a 10:1 compression? Thought it was in the nines..
I'll probably stay with the 10:1 and just get it forged. But thank you.
