ugh. zero research done, clearly. high compression pistons for your turbo build, really? inferior block in the d series world, and the worst d16 head. z6/a6 block, z6/y8 head. do some homework, dood.

I'm sure trying to be nice is only going to turn around and bite me in the *** again, but whatever. Let's start off with the basics - you don't have an EK. You have an EJ6. Drill that one into your head now. Now that we have that out of the way...

Go read those three threads, from front to back, in order, until you understand them fully. Within your budget, there are no properly good pistion options. I hope you also realize that there's a lot more to replacing pistons than just the cost of the piston. You'll also need rods (because floating pin and pressed pin don't play well together), bearings, seals, gaskets, fluids, and that's only scratching the surface. It adds up quickly.

<p>This ******* retarded ****. &nbsp;Low compression is unnecessary. &nbsp;Don't do it. &nbsp;Come join the rest of us in the 21st century, where we have the metallurgy and tuning technology to run engines that aren't ****.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>We aren't here to spoon feed you. &nbsp;Literally all of your questions are answered in the links I spoon fed you. &nbsp;Unfuck yourself, and go ******* read.</p>
