Default Need info on beefing up a D16Z6....

I need some info on putting a set of Civic Gx(Natural gas powered) into a D16Z6, I've heard that these pistons raise compreseion considerably and with a chipped P28 ECU this combination can make a great deal of power for a relatively small investment. Any one out there done this, or know of sites where I can find some info? Thanks.

Any aftermarket pistons have the potential to increase both compression ratio and performance.

What will your compression be?

It isn't cheap, unless you feel you can install the pistons yourself. But, if you do then you already know that you will most likely need a new bearing set for your engine. Timing belt...and other things.....right.

Other wise, I suggest you look at Cams instead.
