Anyone using vitara pistons in your single?
 

Hey i have an eg with a y8 in it and i was just wondering it anyone has used or knows anything about the vitara pistons. Thanx

ya they are one of the best piston sets but you cant run them with out boost... you get way to low of compression with them

Great with boost and cheap. compression is in the 7s. check http://www.turbod16.com and lookup user fjt. he has custom length rods to bump up compression. Tons of threads bout them as well.

great when u boost

ok thanks. Any idea on the max boost i can run with them

People have hit in the 400whp range with them now. I got a set from FJT. Super fast shipping and a very knowledgeable guy to boot.

Here's a link to his site: http://www.fjdistributors.com/

I have them in z6 in my 92 hatch. Terrible acceleration right now since no turbo. But its getting turbo'd soon https://honda-tech.com/forums/images...es/emsmile.gif

Why would you build the bottom end for turbo, and then not turbo it?

Yeah all of these guys:

can you pepople read, he said he will put a turbo. Maybe its better to put a big turbo and build the block after it blows......or not. Obvioulsy if he had all the resouces to do both at the same time he would have.

I just Finished putting a set of vitara pistons and scat rods on my eg y8 motor. im currently braking in the motor since the compression is in the 7's (7.8 to 1 ) it feels slugish. but hopefully with turbo setup it will run like a champ...
