I have decided to pull the head from my car so thought I might aswell take the 8.8:1 CP Pistons out and put some stock compression pistons back in. Reason for this is that I will get more power from the stock pistons and my supercharger.

I need only one piston as I have the others....does anyone feel like posting one out to the UK?

Hopefully in the next few months I'll be installing 1.8L pistons in my 2000 2.0L. Then I'll have some used stock 2.0L pistons, if you feel like waiting.

I pulled my head and found that one of my CP Pistons is damaged, I don't know if they do single replacements but I think I need a complete set of pistons now. I might just buy the 1.8L pistons from Kspec.

Dealers in the UK want £480 for a set of pistons....I got my forged pistons for £300 delivered from the US.

Im in a dilema
