the link i posted shows you what do do :S

Re: Best Pistons for me to use?
 

if you can't install a piston into a block i seriously doubt your ability to maintain a turbo honda

Re: Best Pistons for me to use?
 

seriously, look at widebody

(before you start crying jeremy, that was a joke)

Re: Best Pistons for me to use?
 

well I just am gonna try and build it right the first time and learn the rest while I go... I have a few friends who are licensed mechanics who can help me and I have to learn the rest as I go

you have to start somewhere.... and here I am... but thanks for the confidence ::)

Re: Best Pistons for me to use?
 

One of the best deals ATM is the FJT combo with the longer D16 rods and the Vitara pistons (75.5mm). You get a better R/S ratio, pistons that can take >400whp, AND greater than 8:1 compression. My buddy made 250whp with that turbo on a B16 at 9psi, but with an open downpipe & .63ar turbine housing. A higher CR D16 will easily make 250whp with 15-18psi, which is about the safe limit for 91 octane on a 9:1 block.

Re: Best Pistons for me to use?
 

Should I be able to increase my rev-limiter safely then due to the better r/s ratio?
Until what RPM usually?

Re: Best Pistons for me to use?
 

9k :6 :6 :6 :8

Re: Best Pistons for me to use?
 

lol... some how I don't think the cylinder walls and rings would like 9k in a d-series... even if it did have a better r/s ratio

Re: Best Pistons for me to use?
 

they aren't the problem with redlining, rolling efficiency and unbalanced mass is.

Re: Best Pistons for me to use?
 

so are you able to increase redline at all then... like 7500?
