question.. how long do you reckon those would have lasted(standard pistons) if fueling and ignition were spot on and running medium to low boost? The same will just happen to the Omegas if the fuel/ign problem is not sorted, will it not? |

apparently not mate , Benross has lowered the CR ratio by opening up the chambers in the head + the omega's have a 10cc dish . so now the motor is a low C motor ... hope that makes a little sense as it dosent to me ..

Ahh.. im talking of standard 1275 pistons, not the turbo ones. Have a rebuilt engine with a cr of 8.5, and thinking of running low boost.. 6-7psi. but i understand I will have to make 100% sure the AFR's are right with not much advance to avoid det. |

They have a much thinner crown, so it will take a lot less detonation to kill them. On 11th Feb, 2015 robert said:

That I understand, though how does a thin crown relate to land breakages? Is that not just down to the piston being made from a lesser quality alloy? |

My theory is that standard pistons would be fine with the right CR, fuelling, ignition and decent IC up to 10 or even 12psi.
