If you're going to go turbo later don't buy pistons now.

You really need to pick which route you want to go. N/A you need higher compression. So with 9.8-1 you would still be down some power.

yea, i think it looks best to build up around everything else, then get pistons later, just because im undecided...i just figured since my car has 107,000 miles pistons would help alot..

ill jus build other things first....
...thanks guys

Not if he wants to go a different route later. Then have to change the pistons again.

If you are planning to do that then I think the best is to use the same pistons and just buy new rings for it
