Like I said hondas are probably my least strong area of knowledge.

I decided to ceramic coat the piston faces. I ordered the materials tonight - hopefully have them by this upcoming saturday and will be coating them. Should add even more protection against detonation

these are the OEM honda style pistons that are in my car now (NA not turbo), top ringland is pretty beefy looking note theres 3 sets of rings

I cant say i approve of HG comp ratio changes, but if you are going to, dont forget to account for the cam advance/retard that occurs when you move em up and down like that.

as for why i dont approve, no quench area anymore. quench only occurs at close tolerances, the closer the better. opening it out just a bit can ruin the effect. opening it out a lot makes it non existant, closing it up can help no end. still, thats the end of my rant on that. keep us posted :-) should be pretty sweet.
