Try some of Nicos Sponsors. Do a search, and see what other members recommend. Unless you have a questions about some new name brand, it has all been covered.

I have some KA24e forged JE pistons i will sale you. Its a long story why i have them, but lets say they have less then 5000 miles on them. I am unsure of the CR as the machine shop responsible for the long story ordered them. I think they are 9.5 to 10 (i wanted 9:1) but unsure, the car ran fine with a JWT NA tune. I spoke with someone from JE and they feel they might have enough material to be machined down. I will find a picture if your interested.

Sorry for the lack of information they have been sitting in my garage for like 4 years.

man its been a long time sense i have posted, i need to edit my sig.

I hear the ones from AMS performance are the best for turbo applications. I don't have them myself yet so I can't attest to that personally, but thats what Ivan uses in his 650+whp 240... so thats good enough for me lol

jrc i sent you an email about the pistons you have. Arias and Ross both make pistons for the sohc motor for both n/a applications and forced induction applications. Both brands are very high quality and could probably handle more than you could throw at them. Both sets also average about $500. I believe CP makes a piston for the sohc app but they are harder to find.
