Clifton Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 Ya, you do have some reading. Use larger than 370's. You'll max them easily if you run a decent turbo. A 2mm HG adds extra cost. I would skip the forged pistons and get a turbo long block with ex mani. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
