Best Pistons?
 

Just wondering what would be the best pistons to buy for my D16y8? I'm planning to rebuild the engine also cuz I wanna boost it and I need to know what would be best for the little D16? I heard about JE and Eagle, but is Eagle a better brand?

RE: Best Pistons?
 

eagle is a more regarded brand. as far as better, who knows really...

RE: Best Pistons?
 

best piston money out there is cp hands down. but you are gonna pay for what you get

RE: Best Pistons?
 

hmm ic. Okay, well I'll look into it some more.
Has anyone here turbo a D16? Stock internals or rebuild?

RE: Best Pistons?
 

youll find tons of people on here with a boosted d16. As far as pistons go, CP is a great company to go with. I personally rock the vitara pistons in my setup, but thats only because my choices were somewhat limited

RE: Best Pistons?
 

Sometimes OEM cast pistons are all you need. Depends on your power goals.

RE: Best Pistons?
 

be careful what you say is 'the best'. you can never count out JE, SRP, or Eagle.

RE: Best Pistons?
 

when i build my b this summer to handle more boost i'm going with eitherCP or JE.

RE: Best Pistons?
 

CPs are gauranteed to be machined accurately toa tenth thousandth of an inch (0.0001"). You don't even have to measure them to be sure.

RE: Best Pistons?
 

yes i have read up on cp pistons...but just because piston A is more accurately measured than piston B doesnt nessecarily mean that the former is better than the latter.
