I suggest you test them all yourself: try one of each in your motor. I just wouldn't put the CP in cyl #3, it gets the hottest lol

Here we go again.

Search. The majority of people on this board are going to side with the pistons they are running. So in actuality this thread is going to turn into a popularity contest.

Plus there's no mention of the rest of the setup, what he/she plans on using it for, or anything else that might be relevant to someone who's not just a piston manufacturer cheerleader. Then there's the matter of the TOS, which if the OP had read the posting guide at the top of the F/I forum they'd know not to even start this type of thread:


"Ask questions to make informed decisions..not give people 20 choices so they can make uninformed votes over what they "think" is best."

I prefer Wiseco, they've taken the most abuse in my motors and held up the best. JE's have also worked well for me, and plenty of people that I know swear by CP's. I really don't think that it matters as long as you get the correct specs for your application.

We run CP in our own cars... and we only sell CP and Arias. If you go to the races i think CP and Arias are the most used and have the fastest records

weisco is great for the pricing mostly street guys on a buget and JE used to be good they are just over priced now
