press what on and off ?

Theres no machine work ? theyre the same bore and everything ?

and i do have a ring compressor, and the rings should already have the good end gap.

 

call a local machine shop

talk to them

tell them what you plan on doing

i bet you theres more work than you realize, theres a reason our stock pistons have different bore pistons available from the factory id AT LEAST go .020 over so you can make sure your bore is right

pressing the wrist pin off and on to install the pistons

 

my engine dosnt even have 60 000km's on it, i shouldnt need to oversize.

highlighted the key word, shouldnt but its possible

have a machinist check it out BEFORE you install the pistons he will tell you what you need

youd be surprised man

 

even if i do need to oversize, theres no machining involved. just oversize the piston size/rings

 

lol whatever man do what you want it aint my damn motor

i can tell you this though my wiseco .040 bored .0050 ring gap motor ran damn strong with no smoke coming out of the pipe cuz i took the motor to a MACHINE SHOP and had them bore them with torque plates

 

I know what your saying and that's one way to do it. but you don't HAVE to buy the pistons oversized and then get the cylinders bored out. If there's nothing wrong with the cylinder walls then just buy the appropriate sized pistons.


and does anyone know about the cams ?

 

It would be miraculous for the cylinders to be the wrong size for the stock pistons and still be fully round. I've never heard of anyone successfully going with overbored pistons without machine work.

 

ok nuff bout the pistons tongue.gif what i wanna know

can i run 11.0-1 compression on 91 octane
and can i do the 1.8L cam mod

 

i dont really see why not mang
