for the hp i will be running theres not enough reasons to get them. they wear quicker,noiser,have to wait for the car to get to running temp before moving,and eventually u will have to replace or resleave ur block cuz over time they turn ur bore to ovals! for someone like yourself who can put 500hp to the ground this would be a go .. not for my fwd 300-340hp is enough for me

All engines should be warmed up anywaym, more so turbo engines, good pistons control heat transfer better and will increase reliablity, unfurtunatly once we walk away from stock thats thrown out the window anyway mate. Just putting out there
The bore should be ok, will need a hone to set the new pistons/rings. Im using NPR pistons/rings i hear there very good NIPPON PISTON RING CO., LTD.. I will measure the bores to make sure there right , seeing the bore is a harder metal than teh piston is very unlikely that its out of shape esp only doing 60000ks.

No performance gain, allows u to use heavier springs . they strengthen the pin that snaps in the VVt actulator when the cam desides not to move on start up
going along slowy, modding is a slow race. just waiting on turbo 3076 and mani, courior could find MPSG, so turbo heading back to Troy. Will try another address mine or one MPSG will provide. we will get there. But all other parts are there and going in

From stock, to GT3071, to substantially less modded, many lessons learned!
