ok a few questions to ask your self. why to you want to bump compression? second are you ready to do all the other **** that is involved with building a higher compression motor (ie tuning)? if you raise compression youre going to need to tune it. because, YES, the stock fuel maps wont work all that great.

Aftermarket would be the way to go. I personally would run cast oem to prevent blow-by. Forged are noisy and you gotta let it warm up.

Your statement seems contradictory to me. Maybe that's just me though.

it is.

Really it's 6 of one, half--dozen of the other.

After market/oem, pick which one is available and cost appropriate for you.

To the OP: What are your power goals?? There is a point at which driveability is sacrificed for power....you have to decide where there is a happy medium. Also, price is a good thing to consider. If you're just doing pistons, it wont be too bad...

For me, I'd go with RS Machine 84mm ITR pistons. They're well priced, but if I'm not mistaken they're cast as well.
