I heard Audi Pistons are good with this conversion...think they are JE or KS pistons

Ive heard good and bad things abouth the 1900, dont quote me as im not a pro but ive heard that sometimes rods etc from a sierra engine and as far as im aware they are like chocolate. Iv heard specialised are good but ive also heard that they are not worth checking them out yourself first.

If your building an engine it may pay off to go the trusted ZVH route and get another 100cc.

Going to run MF2, and maybe water injection.

I'm going for some forged pistons, not sure about the rods yet.
