I voted for JE/SRP but I really meant JE. JE pistons are much better than SRP pistons.

Man, I'd love to get ahold of some rollerwaves, but Endyn just doesn't like to respond to emails. I guess they're super busy.

Default Re: Best pistons for heavy boost? (nathan's boosted civic)

Arias are HEAVY pistons... easily 50 grams apiece heavier than Endyne or Je's... Wiseco/Endyne are the lightest, strongest pistons on the market right now <perfect combination for Imports>

Hey Nathan, go see my parts pics here....

My Arias low compression pistons are easily stronger than my friend's low compression JEs I put in his LS/VTEC. Just looking at them, there is more material between the top of the piston and the first ring(can you say detonation protection) and they are much thicker in between the rings. Great pistons.

as for the arias VS. JE deal, I heard that arias pistons are a pain in the **** to drive daily. The piston slap is just horrible...That's what I heard anyways

true that the pistons work... but after all... they are wiseco pistons in the first place... i can modify pisonts and make them work as well... and as for how can i say this... im not going to turn this into an endyn debate... i just know... lets leave it at that

sure, you can modify your pistons. But you could just save yourself some hassle and extra expense and just buy them. It's not like Wiseco is a bad piston. Just my thoughts, definately don't want no internet drama.

The arias setups that I've used only make slight noise until the warm up a little, then they are just as quiet as anything else.
