Default Re:Vitara Pistons in an A6, How Low Compression?

Ive already got eagle rods

I was told that because the pistons are 2mm lower than stock that it drops to like ------- 7:1 in an A6

I dont think .040 off of the head raises compression that much

Dont forget its an A6, not a y8/z6. Im pretty sure c/r are usually lower

Thanks guys

i got those numbers from the calculator, and i just pulled .04 off of the headgasket.

im sure you'll be okay i mean, it will probably run

wiat until your car is done damn it.

1st and 2nd all you see is smoke, 3rd through 5th will make her wanan show you her ****.




i just went through and put in all a6 specs and then trimed the headgasket for the compression you'd have with stock rods/pistons + your head milling.

yes it will be a lot lower w/ 2mm lower pistons but you can play with the stroke length for the 2mm i believe it will give the same results

Im on that page, youll see all my questions in the last 2 pages

Yes I work at a machine shop but its a production machine shop, no custom order work and the people are stupid

I need some answers, people on Honda-Tech are giving me 7.8:1 comression, which to me seems retarded because so many people wouldnt have jumped on these with that compression

Need help from HMT

Forget those vitara pistons. Spend a little extra and get some good forged pistons...
