local shop here builds 500-700 hp honduhs all day long, known for numurous 9 second hatches AND coupes, all they use is arias, so they are good pistons, only bad thing i've heard is on cold start you get terrible piston slap cuz they are rock hard pistons, personally when i build im goin with srp, but thats just me.....

srp's are ----?
i dont think so devil dick

srp's are great for daily drivers because of the higher content of silicone they contain.
quit while ur ahead kid

I have read a few times people saying SRP pistons are ---- or they've heard they are ----. Well, when I got a set for my D16Z6, I called JE and told a rep. I want to return them for some JE. To make a long story short, he told me for 20 psi I will be wasting my money. He suggested I stick with SRP.

Arias pistons are good stuff.SRP is probaly crap if your trying to make 650whp but other than that go for it they are cheaper.

I have always had great experiences with CP pistons.

wiseco and ross are my personal favorites. i have used wisecos in dirtbikes, quads, muscle cars, wetc. anmd they have alwasy held up. we used 13:1 compression pistons in a 350 small block. made 520hp on the motor and they held up thru numerous 1/4 mile runs and plenty of burnouts and wheelies.
im going to use them in my build, hell, there made in ohio, i could drive and pick up a set, not to mention i get a descount on them.

I'd get SRP's before I got a set of arias, I have them in my car and they have to be the loudest forged piston I have ever heard in my life.

these are the pistons I suggest

Endyn Rollerwaves
CP Pistons
JE/SRP

Personally I've only used Arias pistons. I've had great luck running up to 22 psi boost with those. I currently have 9.5:1 Arias in my Integra right now.

They are however only slightly loud on first start but after a few seconds they are silent.
