I'm building a n/a H23 and am researching pistons right now. From what I understand Mahle Pistons don't require you to sleeve the block so I wanted to see if anyone on here has used them and what you thought of them. Thanks for the info.

 

Honda-tuning did a pretty decent article on an H22 rebuild a couple months ago, you might be able to find it. Said many good things about Mahle pistons.

 

Thanks for the info. I'll have to check it out. You wouldn't happen to know what month it was would you?

 

Search the Force Induction forums, there was a long topic about the h-series Mahle pistons.

 

i just used 12.5:1 mahle pistons in my ls/vtec build. they are .50mm over but honestly cant tell you much bc im still breaking in the motor. Most people dont know what mahle even is but my builder told me he recommended them

Aswell as Mercedes,Chevy,etc I wish I had a set laying around I could try out.
they make a 11.5 piston that would be great for an allmotor street car.

 

jdogg says the all motor mahles are closer to 12:1. which is great imo

 

I think it was the oct or nov 2005...just go to their site...you wont miss it...and yes i have heard nothing but good things from mahle's...
