Default Which way to install Wiseco pistons?

I have a set of Wiseco pistons for B18b forced induction.

Which way does it go in the cylinder?

Preferably with the valve reliefs facing up.

Maybe you should seek a professional engine builder...

Sorry guys for making myself clearer.

On OE pistons, there is an arrow on the piston top that you point towards timing belt side. Whereas on aftermarket pistons, such as Wisecos don't.
