Piston strength - I run an SC14 at 18psi on 4AGZE pistons Sun, 24 July 2005 12:14 Go to previous message
Hi,
I finally got my AW11-GZE up and running with an SC14. It is running custom engine management and 18psi of boost (yes I know that sounds very high Wink ).

I am slightly concerned about the reliability of the pistons.
I will probably get some forged pistons in the next couple of weeks anyway, but can somebody comment on using the 8.0:1 ZE pistons at this level of boost. As far as I am aware, I don't know ANYBODY who has run this much boost with an SC14, which is actually not spinning the SC any faster than a 168mm/120mm pulley combo with the SC12......And if it seems to good to be true (acceleration is so good) then this has surely got to end in tears!

Cheers, Nick
