Don't know if this interests anyone, but I got a quote from JE in the US yesterday, and they say that a set of four forged pistons for a pug 205 gti will be $550 - $600 - which is a bit cheaper than their UK equivalents, as far as I'm aware.

I presume they're as good as their reputation..

i hate minis, but love attention

I have got JE's in my mini (ableit 86.5mm bore). I get them from a guy who imports them, he can probably get A series ones. Mine were 400 inc the VAT
