Seems to be something wrong with my pm I can't seem to reply to your pm's

Anyway,

I have been cleaning the pistons up and noticed that one of the pistons is a bit dodgy. just assumed they were all ok...
3 are very good but the top of the crown of one of them is a marked, but the sides of the crowns are fine.

Are you planning on machining the pistons down to drop the cr to run higher boost ?

If so they would be suitable for this as this would remove the damaged surface.

I know morespeed do this with the pistons still on the rods for £ 40 a set.

If not I’m quite happy to keep them and do it myself.

Sorry if this not what you wanted to hear, but this would be a cheapish way to get lower cr and usable pistons.

If you are still interested I can take some photos

Looks like Vegard was right ..lol

Cheers
