hi all...looking to get some forged pistons right now, not too sure which braqnd and wotnot, just know they have to be 86.5... got a quote off rich from lynx, think he deals with wossner... just wondered if there were any cheaper alternatives without sacrificing quality? cheers, tom. ________________________________________ Thomas - Black 6 rollin' on black 15's...197bhp - 155.8bhp/135.4ft-lb atw |

If youre using forged pistons, youre obviously building a decent engine. Therefore id go with Rich's recommendations, he buys the top quality parts, no point buying cheap, buying twice imho. |

Surely you can buy the same brand elsewhere cheaper without impacting on quality?Also try Carl he is able to source forged pistons for a good price. ________________________________________ Ex SC-6Now in a Megane R26 |

As said, Pointless buy cheap stuff as you pay for what you get. I tend to use Omega or JE but these are around £800.00 a set and Arrow/Sanez rods as fitting anything else is a risk. ________________________________________ 306 Rallye Sptint/Race Car, 205 CTI 1.9 8v to name a fewRoad, Track and Race/Rally car preparation to your personal requirements, Full Workshop & Diagnostic Facilities New and Second parts, from Plugs to Turbo's We now also carry out Routine Servicing www.pugracing.com & FB Page, https://www.facebook.com/PugRacing Ebay; http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Pug-Racing-Shop 2012/2013/2014/2019 Class Winners at Gurston Down Speed Hillclimb & Joint overall, Class record too along the way, |
