Default pistons... pistons... pistons

Been doing some preliminary searching on the web for a good set of pistons for my f22b accord motor. What companies make the best pistons? I looked into Ross and JE Pistons but did not find any for my f22b motor. I'm wanting to keep the compression low and turbo the car around 15-20 psi. Any input would be great.. thanks

p.s. i did search but came up with nothing.

You are correct in assuming that you are going to need low compression pistons, especially with that kind of boost. You probably going to look at around 8.5-9.0 compression. Don't go any higher than 9.5, and that's pushing it with that kind of boost. JE makes really good pistons, and they can special order them if need be. Go to their website and order a catalog and flip through that. Wiseco also makes really good pistons, not sure if they make them for the F22 though. Also make sure that your rods are up to the task of handling that boost. Eagle makes a really good rod for Honda's.

Thats right, especially in Central Oregon. Now, I am excited to know that they put a Hooters in Portland. Gotta go by there sometime. Hooters is my favorite restaurant.
