i have clearly miss read something somewhere i now have to go re-read some stuff.... i by all means don't know everything about building motors and can a will admit that, this is a project that a few buddys have agreed to help me with and help me understand things that i don't know about motors ... so feel free to correct where i am wrong, on my parts list k20 pistons was on there and i found them cheep so i grabbed them.... like i said must have miss read or got something confused

yeah high compression pistons and boost dont mix. i dont know how many lbs you plan on running but i would either just use the stock f23 pistons or if youre planning on upping the boost to a higher amount' buy some dished pistons.

but id be willing to buy the k20 pistons off you.. long as they are k20 type-s ones. future build in the making...

to be honest dont really have a goal of the amount i want to boost but boost is def my goal, know of any where good to pick up some deep dish pistons? the sites i look at dont have much of anything. ill let you know when and if i get rid of them they are k20 type s and in pretty good condition,

well seeing as he was planning on running 86mm k20 pistons i doubt thats come across his mind yet. but 1mm over isnt gonna do much for him. he should really bore to 89mm and and sleeve the block.. that way he can turn up the boost as much as he wants, along as there corresponding parts as well to handle 15 + lbs.
