where can i get slightly lower compression pistons for a standard bore using the standard con rods and pins, and those eagle rods, anyone know if they use stock pin diameters and rod bearings? i was thinking of doing all this before i put the turbo in, but i want to keep compression close to stock to maintain quick spool up thanks!!!

Call Under Pressure Research and Development (UPRD)...i believe their web addy is www.uprd.com
Talk to rich, he's the neon freak over there You can also call up cnnp racing where my friend got a 8.5:1 wiseco piston but with stock bore/pin/ring specs but they take FOREVER to get your stuff and is really bad at customer service >=(
UPRD should take care of ya...

Don't even think about trying it unless you have VERY low mileage on your engine. Trust me, I just experience this first hand. I wanted to do the same thing. The guy put the bottom end together and didn't tell me there was too much piston clearance. I put 500 miles on the engine and cyl's 3 & 4 beat themselves to death. Had to redo the whole thing again, this time boring it .020. The clearance should be .004 and unless you have low mileage your gonna more wear in the engine then that. Besides, boring only costs about $80. Joe 97 GS w/ Hahn stage 2 Keep cruisin' & keep the shiny side up. http://joeseclipse.homestead.com
