can anyone post their opinions on these pistons?

 

IB Spec Pistons you can't go wrong. It has been proven on the track and dyno!

 

i've seen couple make over 260 and a ton at around 250.

 

i guess i may be mistaken but I thought the super dupers were CP pistons?

No, those are the "Ultimates", IB Wiseco's are "Super Duper"

 

I have some super dupers, and my motors goal is around 230-240whp, they are very light and have gas ports to help seal the rings..

 

Throwing a set in a motor this weekend

 

We made 260 with 175lbs with the IBSpec SuperDupers and long rod combo

 

Todd (b19coupe) made 259whp on the dyno recently.

85mm Super Dupers.

ROd

 

when is ROD going to make 259whp?

Super Dupers Are the Bomb the only way to go IMHO

what kind of setp-up is that?

Rod i heard you ran mid 13's in the hatch congrats for relativley stock motor

 

IB super dupers are unreal, proven power

 

iono i think any motor can make power with a 13.5:1 compression,heh anyone know about the ib spec wiseco, not the super dupers? , super dupers have to high of a compression to daily drive around in cali

 

Aren't Super Dupers the only shelf pistons with an 8cc Dome?

Others are in the 230-240'ish range and it seems the IB pistoned motors are hitting in the 250-260+ range.

If the engines are similar (everything the same except for the pistons) how can the gains be that much higher? I am not down on IB at all, I am actually impressed with their stuff, but something doesn't make sense to me here... If the stroke, bore, compression, bearing clearances, ring gaps, fuel tuning...etc are all identicle, how can their be a difference in power by just changing a JE piston to a IB piston? Is there more to the comparison? Are the engines really that identicle or is there some "magic" or "voodoo" involved? I would like a reasonable explanation to these questions. I think "heresay" is one thing... I could tell you my "magic" pistons make even more power than say the next, but I had better be able to back up the claim. If there were differences in the engine set-ups then the comparison and gains of 10-20 WHP can't be valid, based on "just the pistons alone".

what he said. i'm interested in possibly the 11.8:1 or 12.8:1's on an occassionally street driven car on 92+ pump gas.

 

They have the dyno charts to prove what the IB spec's can do... but uhmmm i dont see how a different brand piston in the same motors would make such a difference...
