I'm in watching this to see the potential, and to learn a bit more about our cars. Thanks for the thread!

I was not aware of anyone running a motor with lower compression pistons yet. I think there was a guy in Texas with an Accelerated kit that was putting pistons in, but I haven't seen him post recently. Full Blown is waiting to blow theirs up to install pistons. I have definitely considered just swapping in lower compression pistsons and rods to get some more power.

They mention the valve train on the website but they dont have any specs or anything that i was able to find. As of right now they are making them as orders are placed. I paid $900 for valves, springs, guides, locks, retainers and springs but there is a 3-4 week wait to make the valves. I didnt feel like waiting so i ordered just the valves from someone else.

Haha oops. That was late last night and I guess I just thought you guys were Full Blown because that was his turbo he got. I so stupid. I need to start getting to bed earlier.

I may decide to build after your done lol !!!

Sorry if I missed it, but did the OEM rods crack? I'm just curious in this example if we can distill that the rods are a weaker point than the pistons/rings?
