Default What pistons are u running in your NA f20. not f22

What compression ratio are u guys running in your NA set-ups. I plan on throwing some slugs in my f20 this winter, but im not confident in which brand i should purchase. I plan on buying some brian crower cams and head combo. so i need some compression. also i do not want to bore out my block to much.

Do some research on the Brian Crower cams for the s2k...nearly all who have used them have lost power. There was a huge amount of hype around them, and then once the independent testing started, the cams started coming out and oems put back in.

How much compression are you looking to run? You can get a small bump by running a Spoon or JDM oem head gasket.

Yeah i have been doing a little research all day, and have found out people are definitly loosing power on these cams. I actually havent found a real good set of cams for the s2000. Is there a set out there? I wanted to run about 12.1, on 93 octane. I plan on running itb's.
