Forged pistons and get the injectors checked.. if you don't wanna get the injectors check, then swap injectors 1 and 3 and see if it blows piston #1 after you rebuilt the motor again. hehe.

it would require more than just forges pistons though cause my cyl wall is fucked...a complete rebuild usin good parts is out of the question right now because i have no money. Thats why im thinkin about tradin the blower.
i would much rather just buy new injectors than blow another engine...lol

yeah, but an ls/vtec makes more power than a gsr, so it would make more since to keep the set up you have and just buy some good forged pistons, it would be a lot less hassle also. what, you're gonna trade the blower for the gsr swap, drop the gsr swap in with stock pistons again, and boost them too, obviously you have bad luck with stock pistons, keep your set up you have and buy some forged pistons.

Re:so my engine blew.....again

is it possible to just put forged pistons in without a complete rebuild?

Re:so my engine blew.....again

you said is messed up the cyl wall though?? you would need it bored/honed.

If the wall is ok it still needs a hone.

btw b16 trans = better gearing then gsr

what do you mean complete rebuild? if the cyl walls are fucked it will need to be bored most likely. and theres no real sense in putting in new pistons without good rods
