Default Here is a picture of the new IB Spec Wiseco Piston.





THe wait was long. But now its over. Just wanted to show you guys what they looked like.

Ultralite design. Lots of compressions.

H-Tech member discounts, of course. Which is deep.

Just sharing.
Type-R compressions are as follows:

9:1, 11.8:1, 12.8:1

Jeff,

Looks good to me.

I am glad that you took weight into consideration when coming up with a design. Also, Wiseco makes some great pistons.

You will have no problem selling a lot of those pistons. Good luck.

12.8:1 in an *** hair over OE bore (read a good hone) is looking/sounding pretty good...

like the anti detination grooves/rings but would also like to see the underside... and clearances...

lightening the rotating assembly will always help free up power no matter what the application.

More compression means more power, but it can be harder to tune, especially
when boost is involved.

you also want a good balance out , for example type r pistons are heavier then gsr do to the crank on the R being heavier which there perfectly balance , you dont want to loose that either..

You mean these??
These are high compression, strutted, long rod pistons I picked up from Larry last weekend. BTW, his shop is nice. All new equipment and some really nice things on the way....

how come you cant take pictures of his "shop". Does it have 40 dynoes?? and many many people that work around the clock for him to operate his 40 dynoes?? ... and a little place up in the attic for him to rest when he gets too tired from dynoing his cars??

Nice-looking pistons. I'm assuming that they are forged? What type of prices are we talking about for HT members?

He doesnt have 40 dyno's, I think he told people that in a sarcastic tone, and everyone took it how they wanted. He got tired of all you ******** on his back, so he just filled you full of BS, more so than you already are.

I did see a dyno there, but it wasn't one you can put a car on.

I got one thing from him, pistons. His pistons are proven power makers unlike the IB ones. They are made by the same company, so consturction quality isn't an issue.

Ohh, and he wanted me to ask all the disbelievers of R/S ratio: What is the R/S ratio of the F20C (S2000 engine). Find that out, then ask yourself, why would honda make it so? Couldn't they have made more torque from a longer stroke??

What I think is going on his larry's charm. He is very very nice, and very very believable when your on his good side.

However, I have a response to your post.

#1 larry stated to many, many, many people, in person, in from of MANY witnesses, in a dead serious tone, he had many, many dyno's. As in around 40.

When we were at his house, with 7 people, he stated in front of all of us, he had to go to "Endyn" because he was meeting 2 shiek's there to do wind tunnel testing on F16 fighter jets fuel cells. That is a true story. He then drove away. Then, later that night, when we came back, he went into detail about how the wind tunnel testing went at "Endyn" and how pleased the Saudi's were with the improvements they bought from "Endyn".

Then he went on to say, after many of us had more questions about his supercharger deal...he said: That the actual engineers from Porsche, flew over to his facility "Endyn" and bought 200 of his supercharger kits modified to fit 911's. And that they were prototyping them in Europe. Then we went on to say, in total detail, how much wheel horsepower the 911's had VS the current 911 Turbo. 1ith all of there, he described he was getting into contract negotiations with Porsche to make the "endyn" supercharger come stock on the car, starting in a few years because it made like 500 WHP VS there measely 400 WHP currently with more torque at lower RPM's.

The above 2 stories were VERY VERY convincing. Beause he looks you right in the eye, and tells them with such detail, its like its really happening.

However folks. The FBI says larry owned no such facility at the time, and that no such facility exists. And that, in fact, the title of the house larry lives in is his parents.

So the moral of the story is...(acura_typer), that you are being, and have been fooled greatly. And that larry is the biggest liar you have ever dealth with, or ever will deal with, in your lifetime.

The above 2 stories are true. I would call people in florida, and ask them if larry told them about the Porsche and Saudi Shiek story, and they would say "yes".

Because he tells everyone about his dreams. Not reality. Every month, it would be a new story.

You should hear the one about Chevrolette and Toyota. That story was told to hundreds of people, and hey..

all those great stories did a few things for him.

#1 Great hype sells pistons.
#2 Great hype makes alot of dealers.

So now, he has alot of dealers, and sells alot of pistons from a base bed of lies.

Its all in the plan. So, to those of you who think I am totally pissed and etc...I tell the truth. And the above is true.

And I have witnesses, and many people on here that know what I say is dead nutz accurate.

So let me ask you...

Why, acura_typer and others...would you buy anything from a man who is a crook, a liar, a fraud, and a bad influence on society in general?

Its like some of you support him, just to be against me or some other people on here.

If you support Endyn, you are aiding him. And I don't think lots of you like supporting criminals.

And to those of you who are still not convinced.

I will run our daily driver, all motor car for E.T's VS Larry's suppossed 496 WHP Civic 1.5 liter with Endyn supercharger for lets say? $10,000 dollars?

All motor with like 230 WHP vs his junk.

And when I win by like 20+ car lengths, all of you will know that suppor that idiot, that you have been played like a fool.

Any questions? Come visit me in person, I have some nice things to show you, you will like.

Oh, and I have .137 raised pin pistons and rods just like Endyn has, from Wiseco.

Except mine are like WAY less money.

I look at some people, and even though I have what they want, they pay Larry $100 more for like almost the same thing. Oh, mines lighter...lol.

Larry's 85 MM high compression piston = 335 grams
Import Builders IB Spec 85 MM high comp= 321 grams

And look at the 2 side by side. LOL. <p
