I run 18psi on a set of non-forged Hepolites. Not sure how long they're going to last though.
Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph

Well i personally would say 20psi on those with under crown cooling. There are a fair number of people use them, cant say i know many using forged although i think giallofly is. |

no real need to forged pistons unless you want a bigger dish than 10cc which comes in the cast pistons. I run cast pistons, over 150bhp,, no problems On 15th May, 2009 TurboDave said:

I'd have thought RPM, Heat and Mixture are the killers of pistons, NOT boost.

True Dave but more boost is more BMEP and eventually you'll find the structual strength of the std piston design...

Those cast 10cc omegas will do the job, mine ran 22 psi on them with healthy BHP. provided the engine is set up correctly they are sorted. Your engine is basically the same spec as mine that did a 13.62 quarter and would show most things a clean pair of heals on the track.
