Default Wiseco pistons - new piston design for B-series?

Does somebody know if Wiseco really released a new and stronger piston design for the Honda B-series?

I read it somewhere but do not know where it was and if it is true.

Looks promising, however the chart they have is very limited. Only shows 84-85mm and at -10cc dome your looking at ~8.5:1 approx on the average GSR build. Yet they mention in description increased compression spools the turbo fast and keeps it spooled on gear shifts. Yet there very low compression, a little contradicting.

Nice design tho! im sure they can do custom stuff with that design to increase compression.

Hmmm... That was from 2010 and those part numbers and have been available for purchase for some time. Maybe that's not what the OP was looking for. I believe I herd some rumor of this too.

Wiseco is testing their HD2 forgings from the 4G63 in Honda sizes. But currently they are custom order only.

Yes, I´m talking about the HD2 forgin or design.
Does somebody know what the difference and the benefit is compared to the normal forgings / designs?

English Racing knows the HD1/HD2 forgings well.
