Yes, Mahle also makes a great piston.

They are hard anodized and then the sideskirts are teflon coated. They are also very light. They come standard with "heavy duty" wrist pins, which does make them slightly heavier, but not heavier then wiseco's. The skirt's on them is pretty much non existant, but tolerances are tighter then most pistons, so who knows if we will have issues with that.

I say if you have to ask what combo to go with, just get the tried and true 800whp method and do eagle/wiseco.
