Re: JD's assault on a 50+ mpg daily driver.
so you paid 120 dollars for 469 dollar pistons and they weren't perfect ??? go figure ::) this is america ya get what ya pay for ... fyi he did think those pistons were still good cause all it did was spin a rod bearing .. and the detonation is prolly from when he got a whack ass xenocron basemap that barely made his car drivable ... pig rich at idle and lean as ---- anything past 4k we then put a vafc back in it and the car ran awesome for 6 months and then it spun a rod bearing..
