so i just finished intsalling my supercharger and im looking at clutchs and internals , im thinking wieco pistons 10:1 compression , eagle rods , arp studs , cosmetic head gasket for the internals and exedy stage 2 clutch to top it off , and 2.6 pulley to see some real power . i do have a dual pass , just not running it now cause its a bit cold here in NY aha

 

Get it done

 

I am thinking of doing something similar!
But i was told all we really need to replace is our rods? and it should be good

 

sounds like my build kinda have fun.

 

hey 06 ion why did u go with the 8.9:1 Pistons?

 

So i can run pump and if i change setups in the future I have nothing to worry about and i can throw anything i want at it.

 

Oh tue i get u.. Maybe i should go that route

 

You dont really have to its not a bad idea to go with 10:1 though. the 8.9:1 i got could eaisly keep me from making my 400whp goal though, but well see.

 

Ha.. well either way the first i am replacing is the rods.. was told by smart forum members that is the first cause they r the first to go

 

The top ringlans are very small on the stock pistons ANY detonation will crack them.

 

Thanks for the info.. will make sure to remember that

 

rod and pistons should be replaced together, i mean u got it apart, might aswell get it done, rods rated at 250, pistons at 300...

 

Should the valves, springs etc be replaced as well or u dont have to

 

8.9:1 is what i got aswell.
lower compression is what you want for boosted applications.

 

im going with the 10:1 , i no i can double the stock hp of the car with a m62 , does any one no what goes out after pistons and rods???

 

after you get the pistons and rods good you can start workin on the head
