I have some that I have waiting to go in my race motor. I chose them because a few of my friends are running the Endyn/Wiseco. One of them ran his motor at 20 psi on stock sleeves for months and cracked the sleeve. When we tore the motor down, the pistons were PERFECT dispite the cracked cylinder wall. No damage whatsoever. They are very good quality pistons.

Why bother going through Endyn and having them marked up. A friend told me they go for, I believe, $520.00 with rings from Endyn. I got mine from Race Engineering for $399.00 with rings.

They are different pistons. Endyn is the only one that sells the Roller Wave pistons with Larrys design.

If they were just rebadged no one would get them but they are modified and are a great design.

I have seen a set of 13:1 compression Endyne pistons and they just look sanded on the yop. What do they mean by rollerwave?

Yeah we'll JE are great pistons, but I just blew a hole in each one which was my fault, although for that price I am willing to try something different. I met a guy who uses Weisco pistons in his 500+hp MR2 and he swears by them.

my friend cracked a sleeve with JE pistons, the pistons and the eagle rods held up through 3 rebuilds..im sure the rollerwaves are just as good, as I plan on running the ENDYN version in my turbo b16...84mm

Ross pistons. $520 with rims for a custom piston. I believe quite a few of the 10 second all motor honda's out there use Ross pistons. I'm building a block this year for my motor, and im going with GE sleeves, 86mm ross pistons, and either pauter or crower rods.

We put Pauter rods in my brothers H22A4 and they are heavy duty rods. My friend also used them in his 500+hp MR2.

What CR will you be running on those endyns? Last time I checked with larry, the 84mm on the b16 would be custom. He said in order to get them made though, he needed a two set commitment... I wanted to run some 84mm in my b16 as well 9:1 or so CR....

$520 for pistons and Rims is a deal.. I thought that was funny.
But we ran a 9sec with eagle rods and Endyn roller wave pistons. We really do like them alot.
