    I found Wiseco pistons for BOOSTED applications, but they say not for use with non-boosted motors. They are here:

    I don't know about high compression ones, try a search on the eclipse board.

    P.S. These are 8.5:1, stock compression is, I think, 9:1, Ripp mods sells 8.5, 9 and 10:1. I don't know if they wok for the I4 for not.

    I would contact Ak1. He works for the Horsepowerhouse, he can probably hook you up with JE Pistons. I know he was able to supply DJ Galant with some for his turbo'd Galant.

    I think they have a website also, horsepowerhouse.com

    Hope this helps.
    Love,

    Correct me if I'm wrong...but isn't it either "all motor" or "forced induction", not both, right? Isn't nitrous considered forced induction?

    Aye you're right about both points. That's why we have nitrous discussions in the Forced Induction forum

    well if u add forced induction to a car, then well, it isn't all motor anymore. its motor and forced induction. but that doesn't mean u can't still build up ur motor for forced induction, that, you can still do

    I am working with a vendor online for the 7g I4's....they should be ready in 4 weeks. I'll will inquire about the 8g's.
    11.5:1 or 12:1 high compression pistons, the price from what I've been discussing may be a little high, but these are custom made.
    I'll try to get back to this thread in 4 weeks. If I don't remember and you do...just pm me or check in the 7g forum, I'll be posting there.
