Hi all looking at piston to build up a supercharged unit. Have many people used AE21251 8.8 cr pistons. Looking to get cr down in the head volume to 8.2 cr 8.4 cr
What's your thoughts??.....

I don't think the 21251's will be up to the job. The 21253's are a better piston which you could have dished out if needed.
If you can stretch to it the cast Omegas are superb.

Thanks Phil. I have been looking at the forged omega Pistons 18cc from med. Which could be an option just more ££ than I wanted to spend lol.

Yes the forged Omega are the best, but the cast ones are good and £200 cheaper.
