Default B20 and higher compression???

I have a B20 with 10.7 compression, I want to know if it will be worth the time and money to change my pistons and to run 12 compression? What percentage gain can I expect from doing this?

I can get a new set of Endyn Roller Wave pistons for a good price and have a buyer for my Arias pistons.

The build
B20 84mm
Arias Pistons
BC spec4's
Omni springs and retainers
Skunk Pro2 intake
Skunk 68mm TB
Hytech copy
BC exhaust
Eagle rods
ARP head studs
Short ram intake with Velocity stack

Thanks

Sounds like nearly my exact build. Get a good head job while it's off and I think you'll love the EnDYns. Dont forget a new tune as well.

(no mine's not running yet, but I'll let you know how it feels)

The head is done already, I did some searching and there are mixed feelings about the Endyn's... not so sure now anymore

Any input guys?

High compression is great...My engine was 12 to 1...it did 205 on dyna pack dyno. I would also recommend a good head port as well...From what I understand Larry at Endyn dose great work if you can swing the cash.

ever dyno your current setup?

you will benefit some from higher compression, it will require a retune
