Best cheap pistons?
Ok. So i got a dual cam zc bored 20 over ane eagle h beam full floating rods. now my problem is that i need cheap pistons that can handle about 10 pounds of boost someday. this build has taken a ridiculous amount of time and i just want to finish the motor before the turbo kit. So does any body know of some cheap (250$ or less) full floating pistons. I tried the ebay ones but i cant use paypal and nobody i know can either. And im not about to send a money order to some douchebag in puerto rico and hope he sends me some pistons. Any help would be appreciated.

Sounds like your referring to vitaras. Have you checked what the compression will be for a dohc zc? 
7.1, even the p28 replacements (nippon) which are not full floating are 7.8 c/r.
Just spend the extra money for some real pistons. If you have to go flat rate, get some d16a6 pistons.

those ebay ones looked pretty good. a friend has them in a turbo d15 with 305 whp and they hold up pretty good. but im really not into sending some poor puerto rican asshat 149.95 and a stamp to reuse.
