Hi Shane,
Thanks for the info.
Re-reading my post your right it does sound like i wanted to get the old ones forged.
I went to a mechanic that has done heaps of work on performance cars and he asked what i wanted several things for and when i told him he said are you running stock pistons to my obvious reply of yes he imediately said not to run boost with the 3SGTE over 14PSI as he has seen at least 3 that have blown the pistons.
I ahve also been told by a fair few people that the 3 SGTE is only capable of running 9-10PSI safely, and i know this is a load since i have been running 14 for some time, however i am going to have to buy a new electronic boost cintrol as my manual one peaks and falls back to 10.
where abouts are you?? supose i could just import the pistons if possible.
