    trouble finding parts.

    I'm looking to boost and build my f22a1 in my accord and i was wondering where i could find forged pistons so i can run a 16g turbo setup. and any recommendation on a cam choice would be helpful thanks.

      the only pistons on bisimoto for the f- series engine are the 12:1 pistons and thats to high of a compression ratio to run boost right?

        you asked for a camshaft.

        yea dont run 12.1 or you blow the whole bottom end. 9.5 should be your highest.

                Arias makes great pistons. As does JE, CP, Wiseco, and Ross...

                I'd like also to know why you don't like Arias...

                    OP:

                    DO NOT SPEND ONE DIME at F22parts... Their shit is ALL overpriced...... You can do MUCH better and ALL the shit they have is available if you know where to look, if you dont, ask... LMK what youre looking for... If im bored ill try and help you out

                    As for why not Arias, Ive used them before in a V8 application and wasnt happy with them. But to each their own.... I had a bad experience, not someone elses heresay..... Plenty of people have had good luck with them, my OPINION personally is that I wont ever buy a set again. No explanation nedded. They failed.

                    The Endyns in my origanal build shit the bed in my H22 when I machined my block to Larrys spec too.... The piston to wall (even at the loose end of his spec) was not enough for the power Im making and the pistons hit the walls, destroying them, so now I have a 640 dollar set of ashtrays... He tried to blame it on tuning and Tuning was SPOT ON..... They have a higer silica content in them (supposedly) that the off the shelf Wisecos (Wiseco manufactures the raw slugs for him but the metalurgy is SUPPOSED to be different). They are supposed to not expand as much (due to the higher silica content), hence the ability to run tighter... However my machinist was weary ( I believe the spec for 87mm bore was .0032) he wanted to open it up a half a though... I elected not to - Sure wish I would have listened.



                    I got owned... Not 1 hint of detonation on the pistons, or evidence of a lean condition.... Piston to Wall was just to tight... In the end Endyn wasnt supportive AT ALL either, So Ill never buy or reccomend them again either.


                    If I seem to be an asshole i appologize, but Im not here just to bash on peoples shit, however I do have experience with that of which I speak or I keep the fuck quiet to try and learn..... Ultimately I just hope that people can find some srt of insight from my sucess, and failure both... Saving them the money and effort that doesnt need to be spent fixing something you can avoid, ya know?


                    I went with CPs this time, went .001 bigger than spec (due to the prior "lesson", and my motor has lasted 9400 miles thus far CONTINUALLY beaten at 600+ WHP Ecveryday I drive it. I just pulled the head off due to an overrev missed shitft (12k RPMS) and the cylinder walls and pistons look NEW.





                    You can still see the crosshatches in the walls, and the CNC marks on the piston crown......

                    Cant say enough about Ferrea comp 6000 valves or Supertech Springs and retainers... My head is fine (OVER 12K FTW!!!) THANK GOD...lol.

                    Need a new oil pump (gear broke) and im going to change te rod bolts and bearings Just because... But am really happy the motor is healthy as it is....


                    Thats my experience.

                      thank you, thats exactly what i was looking for. not calling you an asshole but any means either, i just wanted to sort out someones opinion from facts (or in this case, a bad experience)

                        actually i said any recomendation on a cam would be nice. so my question would be. what compression should i run? im looking at doing a 16g set-up hopefully around 20psi

                          Bisimoto does have a turbo grind for the f22. Seeing as he is highly recommended, I'd go for it.

                            ive seen the bisimoto turbo cam and that is what i will prolly go with. i was just wondering if there were other brands or suggestions.
