hi
i was wondering how much of a hp and torque i would gain if i put pm7 pistons into a d16a6. I would also like to no if it would be reliable and what octane i would have to use at the pump,
thanks for the help

why not just by a sohc zc...its a d16a6 block with zc pistons, either way, it will be "reliable" as far as cr ratio....

i heard that its hard to find a sohc zc with pm7 pistons most of them have pm6 pistons

you'd be better to start with a d16z6 engine if posisble... just cause with your engine you'll start with 100hp and maybe finish up with 120... or start with 125 and maybe end up with 150 on a z6....

you can use those pistons or the p29 pistons though... you'll need to run the highest octane possible and probably retard your timming to run them though

thanks... all keep that in mind.

i was just wondering if mini me are reliable for a d15b2 with mpfi, thanks

why not, high CR though..

punkindrublic

not as high as his stock engine running on pm7 or p29 pistons though

no, but not all of us like to fill our tanks up with 94 esp @91c a litre.
