Piston Preference.

[Vtechno]

Like title states. What is/are you preference when it comes too aftermarket pistons?

im looking for 12.0:1 w/ n2o on this motor (closed deck h22a), so im looking for a piston that can withstand a nasty beating. i baby my cars through the week and beat the piss out of them on weekends.

Endyn's RollerWave pistons seem too be my fav as of now. a few of my friends have ran them with GREAT results. strictly designed too prevent detonation. 13:1 on a 120 shot for about 3 years now. it was a h/c n2o b18 then converted too a higher comp, ls/vtec on same shot. STILL NO PROBS. She daily drives it everyday (de-tuned now).

my options are still open though. they RollerWaves are pretty pricey, but for and h22 with its walls and shit, im going oo be spending the $$$ anyway.




chime in guys. support your answers with as many facts/links as possible.

i like and used the mahle piston we've been using them four about 3 1\2 years now and u dont have to sleeve the block with these pistons. i had 9:1 comp pistons for turbo. a friend of mine has the 12:1 comp pistons. they work great. both motors are still runnin

while i was posting this thread, i had another window open and i was doing some research on those pistons. thats the reason im posting this thread. i cant decide, and there could be better pistons too better suit my needs.

Anything else other than mahle you have to sleeve.

i thought so. tried calling Endyn but i think i got the wrong number. a lot of pistons say "for h22" but the forget too mention that it needs too be sleeved. Mahle it is. thanks.
