quality?</div>
please search before asking this kind of questions....
they are low compression pistons, and there will be no HP gain... they will allow you run higher boost.

For 350-400 I'd be in for .20 over w/ rings if they forged. Really doubt this is feasible tho? Tigerlily's from kspec forged are like 820 dollars? How would these be similar quality for 400?

Wiseco pistons are known for GREAT quality. They come with coated skirts, rings, pins and can be bought in any size and compression. Right now he's figuring the shipping costs. He might also just offer one type of piston to make things easier on him for distributing to everyone. Probably the 20's with 9:1.

Yeah 9:1 wouldn't be too bad at all. It depends on how he wants it man. I mean if we can get higher comp pistons too, that just broadens the scope for people to buy them. But I don't think they'll be a big seller cause the best way to get some power out of the Beta is a TC. Keep us posted man, Depending on the timing I would definitely be in.

8.5:1 is too low for the average tuner. 9:1 is a better comp. if you want 500whp or so. And it seems that .020 is what everyone wants anyways.
I'm sure the price will be under $400 shipped even though Wisco will charge you $450 per set with a longer wait.
