im debating on getting os pistons or standards, but if i do get os pistons will the machine shop hone to .25 over or bore to .25 over??? i have read some threads on this but i couldnt find an exact answer weather or not they will just bore or hone. And i was told it would run me $2000 to bore just to .25 over.

 

$2000 to bore .010?

Damn, I cant imagine what they would charge to install sleeves

i got sleeves done for 1000..they are totally overcharging..

 

so what do u guys suggest?

 

well if the pistons are .25 over you have to bore unless your block was rebuilt before and has been bored oversize already....

 

i have a question. so if you get the standards size type s piston it will juss fit on them 93-96 h22 jdm motor? do u need new rods too? what kind?

H22A4 rods

 

or you can have the stock rods rebushed to accept the floating wrist pins.

 

contact user name earl here on honda-tech. He has a deal with benson. Its around 1000 to sleeve, but dan benson is the best in the honda business.

 

wtf... 2k to bore and hone? it should definately be under 100 bucks for a 4 banger.

 

if you get os pistons you need to bore so they fit, and then hone (cross hatch on the walls) which help to seat and seal rings.

you should still hone even if you go standard.

I did this exact setup. To bore 10 over is like too small, or atleast the guy who did my setup said it wouldn't be worth it to bore it. He honed it out instead.

I also checked with Tempest Racing and Dynamic Motorsports, both shops saying they wouldn't bore FRM because it screws it up. I didn't ask about the honing at that point, but from all I learned researching (plus the helms instructions) it would be honed out, not bored.

 

sorry to ask a newb question. but can someone tell me whats the different between hone and bore?
