do you think they are worth paying the extra for over the calver st pistons you posted the other day that you use?

one day boost will be mine!

fancying a set Paul? 200bhp 998 etc?

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

I don't know to be honest.

Has anyone ever broken one of the Taiwan made cast Hypatecs/Mega/Evolution pistons?

If I was going to build a high revving race 998 Turbo, then this would be the piston of choice.

I guess its where you draw the line on spending.

Same as these http://www.swiftune.com/Product/1049/omega...ghty-minis.aspx

But these are abit cheaper!

On my list for the next build, think we'll have 200 bananas before that though!

True.

Swifty do some flat top forged 1100 pistons though

Wonder if the crown is thick enough to put a little dish in.

oh. Getting confused between super mighty mini and mini 7. Lucky I didn't buy any!

How can you tell anyway, the size is not mentioned. Just like these http://www.swiftune.com/Product/1050/omega...20-1395-ch.aspx

One advantage to offset against the cost is that 5.7cc dish. It means you could use a skimmed 12G295 or a 12G940 without much hassle to get 9:1 CR or lower.

Why not get some 1100 pistons and have some proper long rods made.....

Then we're talking!

Why have I just gone through my stock of cylinder heads when I do not, repeat, do not want to build any more engines :(
