I am looking into increasing my engine's compression ratio but don't know much about the technical issues such as what to look for. First of all who makes pistons for the F22b, how much, who sells them and what is the "risk" of raising the compression ratio. I can't seem to find the right info just by doing searches and all my friends are V8 mustangs runners, and can't help me with the SCC issues.

-My main objective is to make more power but I need to know what are my options regarding piston compression mods.

help me out!!!

 

Detonation.

 

You can't possibly mean there is "NO" way to safely raise the compression ration of the F22b......
Can you?

 

Of course you can. Just make sure your air/fuel mix is right.

 

And you run higher octane fuel...retard timing.

Theyre wiseco pistons 8.8:1 (stock bore ~85mm)and crower rods.

I saw race engineering's tent at Englishtown about a month ago, i was the only one looking at F pistons etc....
friend: what are u looking at over there?
me: F pistons
friend: Riiiight
me: come over here and look
friend: holy ****, who knew they existed

Nick- who wants to put an F into a civic hatch.....

 

If you go higher compression, you will need to spend some quality time on the dyno, if not you will only lose power from the ignition retard via the knock sensor.

 

what compression will this put you at?
