dropping in the 01 GX pistons will lower the compression as they have 3mm lower compression height............

Please, in your other posts elsewhere on here and other forums, you never mentioned you wanted to use the 01 slugs.

They might work in a D15 long rod setup, but not a 1.6L unless you use custom rods.

I'd be easier just to order some P29's and be done, cheaper too! You can find the P29's for $150-175 shipped, which is about 1/2 the cost of using the GX pistons and rings.

$250 + S&H for a set of the GX pistons and rings..........
