In the import Summitt catalog, they have a set of 11:1 JE Pistons with rings shipped for $595. Pistons for our cars is not cheap at all, they are actually pretty freakin expensive...Good luck trying to find some that are under 400. Let me know if you do.

I want to say 8.8:1 but i'm not totally sure of that...I know the F22a1 is that and as far as changing between a1 and a6, I dont think they ever changed the piston/ring type or overall specs of the block and head..

Ripe for a turbo, but that sucks about higher compression pistons. I think my pal got them for his overbored H23 for cheaper.
