Too bad..I was going to suggest NPR pistons. On eBay they run just under $100 all day long. The largest bore size I can find is 85.5mm.

Good luck with your search.

Dumb question especially considering how much i deal with engines lol...but these Engine techs think theyll shoulder 500wheel? Next will i be able to mate a stock/ or similar to the OE piston to any after market rod that is based of a floating pin? vs our stock pressed ones? If that makes any sense

***By the way shout out to Mitsu style our forum is way better then MN SUBARU bunch a freaks on their half of them dont know jack about their own cars sigh**

I would not run NPR pistons at 500hp. They are very touchy and you will crack/break ringlands.

Thank you, i guess ill have to keep looking...make no sense to get something that will just fail soon if they could solidly hold up to 4-450 i would take my chances but that does not look to be the case. The search goes on. I might post on the national intrawebs

Nippon Piston Ring Co. (NPR) made the OEM pistons for DSMs so they should be the same quality as stock, don't detonate or you'll break shit either way, stock 6 bolt pistons are like glass when it comes to detonation also, but the OEM pistons have held 755awhp before, broke a wrist pin though, amazing what good tuning can do lol.
