Re: rings for turbo

Yea some forged are different thickness and such. Definetly call the forged piston manufacturer and get the specs on the rings that fit before slapping just anything on there.

I called Endyne, they want $145 for a set of rings plus shipping :o. For that I can toss in a bit more and get the Total Seal rings. I'm pretty sure that Weisco makes their pistons, maybe I can use some weicos if they are cheaper.
