Wiseco Forged Pistons Mitsubishi Eclipse RS 420A 2.0L - $509.99 : Real Street Performance Engine Parts, Pistons Rods Cams Valvetrain and More
I was looking to buy pistons for my build, but I don't understand the compression ratio part. The website says that I can order 10.5.1 ratio or 8.8.1 ratio. I think its the hight of the piston. But the only reason why I would think that would matter is if you were buying the right rods for it. But i don't see what the difference between the 10.5.1 and the 8.8.1 is. Is it for a different stroke or what? and i do have a turbo on my car but what would be best to do?
I watched this video on it.
