Anyone know the quality difference between the two or know of a good forged piston around the $500 price range? I'm only going to be initally getting around 400whp but need some new ones bc my stock set is pitted a little.

I dont have first hand experience with either but ive heard the Weiseco pistons can hit the oil squirters. Im gonna go CP when it comes time for my build.

That definitely wouldnt be good. I don't see how a company could make pistons with a flaw like that.

Not exactly sure if it was Wieseco or JE but one of the companies had this problem.
