Default Shop Pinning

I am thinking of shop pinning my rods from my 2002 s2000 that has 72000 miles on it.. What all do you think?? Any good experiences with shop pinning??

Also can you shop pin pistons at all?

Any help or advice is greatly appreciated

Shot peening.

Do you know what the process is all about and why it is done?

What are you trying to achieve?
