Pics of my modified CTR pistons...

When this was my daily driver back home, the domes were cut at a machine shop to reduce the compression.. I made some pretty good power on these (190/139) on 93 octane and stock timing.
(I forgot to mention the agressive timing maps)

They will be going back into my motor when I get a good crankshaft.. just wanted to share the pictures.

Nice mod.. those things really screw up flame travel so thats a good mod.. Did you cc each doma after the mod to make sure they were =?
