How much boost do you want to run? Are you going to change something other than pistons, rings,rods,etc...? Depending on ammount of boost how much compression you are willing to chance?

You can go for a higher compression piston, or a lengthened set of rods. either way you should be able to build compression this way. A good option is a very High compression piston once you have them machine the center about two tenths on each piston that will drop you to the 9.0:1 range. make sure you machine each evenly or you will scatter the block. That would be a safe bet you should be able to cut down alot of turbo lag too. If you have the car as a daily driver pushiong a constant 15 lbs. I would drop the comp to 8.5:1 for reliability. You have a nice list of mods but one thing that I noticed was missing is fuel delivery. You have injectors but that may not be enough depending on your ECU settings. If you are using injectors in the 1500cc range you may have to obtain a fuel rail. AEM makes one that should do fine. SOOOOOOO.... get some forged pistons, check weisco, if they are flat tops then have the centers ground down. ANy more questions let me know. (in reply to ecstasy) Post #: 7

The only time you really needed beefed rods is super high compression or boost. Or if you are increasing RPM's to like 8000 or up (in reply to ecstasy) Post #: 10
