Re: Pistons

First off....use some punctuation.

Secondly, how do you know that your stock pistons and rings aren't still good. For a stock Greddy 16G turbo....you don't need to upgrade anything internally. Do a compression and leakdown test to your car, post the results and then decide if you still need to replace the pistons/rings.

Third and final thing....do you have any idea what replacing the pistons and rings in your car entails and how much work that involves???
