I had Carb Connection in Kirkland WA put in a hondata on my turbo 2000si. My ring lands went **** up on the dyno. I was only running 7.5psi. anyway i am looking for about 250hp at 10psi. Nells at CC said i didn't need new rods, just get lower compression pistons and sence they are cheap and the head is off throw in a block guard.
I was able to get it home and tear it apart, the rods, bearings, and sleeves are perfect, but one piston has some broken ring lands. I need a set of 9.1 pistons that won't notice 10psi and are the same weight as the stock pistons so i don't have to have the whole mess balanced. The bore, head, and stroke are all stock.

can someone help me find some pistons, please??

thinking about getting some cp stock bore, stroke, and 9.1 c/r. What do you guys think. how much lighter than stock are they and is it crutial to balance them.

Since your motor is already taken apart, it makes sense that you should replace your rods as well. I really don't like reusing old stock parts, especially when your motor is making a lot more power than stock. I think it's an added insurance to use stronger internals. And before you order your stock bore pistons, be sure to have you machinist to check the roundness and the condition of the bores to see if you can use stock bore pistons.
Blockguard has always been a debate. Some say it helps and some say it doesn't. If the blockguard is not install properly, it can distort the sleeves and blow up your motor prematurally. So it's your call.
It's always a good idea to balance your motor as well regardless if you're using stock parts or not. Balancing will only add life and reliability to your motor.
