they look pretty sporty
just look out for the really thin spots at the outer edge of the piston, Subaru tried the same thing in the WRX engines and they melt a fair amount of them when they go lean (due to an MAF problem) and there is not sufficient material there to 'wick' the heat away fast enough.

no problem....just stating the similarity to the current WRX design
since you don't use a MAF sensor (so it can't get dirty and cause you to go very lean) you most likely won't have that problem
just something I noticed
BTW, it looks like BP does nice work
cheers

Jsut in case anyone is interested - Burton don't do the machining, it is passed to CTM Racing next door to them - actually along with all the head/block/turbo work they take in, so if you ring them direct and ask for either Charlie or Baz you might get it done cheaper
