High guys

starting to get organised to start my 16v conversion.

Turbo minis seem to be the place to ask question as there seems to be plenty on here.

Have my eye on these

my question is has anyone used them before. is the crown thickness an adequate depth for the pockets to be cut?

There was a spate of failures a few years ago on here with the mega pistons, so most people now use omegas.

Omega. Check out the med website. Then either buy the 16v ones ready cut out. Or fastcarl on here should be able to help with some cut outs.

Waiting on carl to get back to me, bought a set of rims of him and was impressed so he will be doing my crank if we can get details sorted, already asked him on pistons.

I know the omega 1's are top notch, my mate has them in his 5port. im just thinking if i can save 5o quid here and there on parts i can put them to parts like apr bolts etc

cheers
