My Terrible Experience With Wiseco

Yeah I just gave up trying to tell the naysayers that Wiseco pistons are nothing to worry about because some people just get an idea in their head and no matter what you show them or bring to the table that idea will always be there. Oh well I don't get paid by Wiseco to say this stuff just trying to educate and put to rest worried minds. A wise man told me who not to argue with
so i was going to buy some Wiseco pistons. Rods ect. What can i do to prevent this so called "infamous Hair line crack"
 
I have a Wiseco standard bore piston sitting on the garage shelf. It has the skirt broke out of it to the oil ring. Hair line cracks on both sides. EVO3 set at stock boost level 12 lbs. That was another rebuild I did not enjoy. But I did learn not to use them again.
