Uh guys there are FORGED pistons! At least that is what it says in the listing. That is a pretty good price, says that there are turbo ones available as well. I would guess probably 8.5:1 compression?

Seems too cheap... Wisecos are usually $700-800ish if you need to get them custom-made (With a Tiburon you do).

Nah, you don't. Wiseco has the Beta overbore turbo pistons in stock. $395 is a good price though.

When did they start making Beta pistons? Swear I looked a few months back, I'm probably blind though. But for $395.00 for forged pistons (assuming they are, Wisecos usually are...) is a hell of a deal.

i think there are a one or two guys here with wiseco pistons, i never knew they made stock compression pistons though... only 8.7:1 or something close to that.... but i think they go for around 400 normally

The pistons they stock are, IIRC, a little overbore and something like 8.5:1. I'll try to check tonight.
