Im planning on boosting my ls but im not sure on what type of pistons to throw in. Anybody have any good suggestions?

 

use the search button and start reading, these things have been covered a million times but people keep asking the same questions

 

whispers 'low compression'
but yeah there's a ton of topics on this

 

depends on what your hp goals are. i live by culebra and 1604. im sending you a pm with my number if you need real advice and help with deciding a good setup.

 

13 to 1 compression wiseco or je pistons and atmospheric pressure. turn your wast gate to that

 

most common is 9:1 forged pistons

 

def dont listen to this clown^^^^

some OEM GSR P72 pistons will work well or some aftermarket 10:1 will work great. Wiseco or CP are good brands.

 

dude you should be banned for giving an anser like that unless thats what you really think. if your being sarcastic then say so. ...........

TO THE ORIGINAL POSTER....... 13 to 1 pistons are too high a compression piston for even an n/a motor without proper tuning/ high octane gas (over 93) and major internal mods. you need to be in the 8-9 range on you compression. by compression i mean overall compression after all mods/head milling/block decking/head gasket thickness. pistons compression alone will not dictate you over all compression.

 

CP 9:1, 81.5, is what i got.

 

10:1 cr forged pistons are prolly ur best bet...but it all depends on how much power u want to put down...lower compression tends to be more reliable with boost
