anyone with only PISTONS?
anyone out there with a turbo motor with only forged pistons and no rods? how much can you boost with no rods? and can the stock Acura Integra rods hold up to 11 lbs of boost with JE 8.5:1 low compression pistons?

You might as well just get rods. Also, is it even possible to put JE's on stock rods since the wrist pins aren't freefloating?

stock rods will need modified for floating pins
Basically bore out the pin hole and put a brass or was it copper, bushing in it and drill a couple oil holes

no point of keeping rods stock if you are doing that indepth of work on a motor
you could shotpeen and cryo treat the stock rods and they would be at least twice as strong
