Sorry about double post

Please put my name down for the supertechs. I can't pass on that price.

I am in for supertech

I'm toying with the idea of picking up a set of 11.5:1 supertechs. I might get in on this. Which vendor is it through, and what if they screw up the order...will they guarantee fitment?

trying to replicate my badass build?

is through sportcompactwarehouse (Adam)

more like 70% leak in #3 on my daily beater.

please DO NOT POST YOUR THREAD IN EVERY OTHER THREAD.

In for supertechs

Do the pistons differ 1.6 vs 1.8?

Im still undecided if i want to build a my current motor or go with a 99

Put me in for Wiseco's, I'll do Supertech's if the Wiseco's don't have for the gb though.

yes they have different bores.


OK WE NOW HAVE ENOUGH PPL FOR THE SUPERTECHS, WHAT DO U GUYS WANT TO DO?

Ok i need to know what part number u want, rings are included.
What bore, what compression?

Don't go out of your way to post what's available in bore/CR or what the part numbers are.

New info, i can get us wiseco for $425 shipped

Based upon the lower CoE, still in for the S-techs.

When are you looking to order? I need pistons yesterday. Would be interested in the supertechs.

Curious as to the difference between the standard supertechs, and belfabs.

I can't PM, so if you could send me an email @ spyhunterjp@gmail.com, that would be great. Thankyou.

John

Belfab is a vendor, Supertech is a manufacturer. Belfab sells the pistons that Supertech makes.

John, I thought you already had forged pistons in your built motor?

I sent you an email about co-driving my car at the August event if you aren't driving the car that you will be driving at nationals.

One question: does the vendor have the pistons in stock? Specifically P4-MA790-N10.

i am talking with the vendor/supertech to see what is available right now and how long before something will be available.

please pm or post up ur part numbers so it is a little easier for me to keep this organized.

these are the only part numbers i have been given from everyone.

P4-m84-p2 6 sets on hand
P4-ma790-n10 – none – 1-2 weeks out
P4-ma84-n4 very similar to cr9 (no more n4 superceding to cr9) – 0 sets - aprrox 2 weeks
P4-m8350-p2 – 4 sets


also, i got the ok to on the wiseco, so if ur intrested in the wisecos, give me the part number

What exactly does this mean, i would be interested in the p4-ma84-n4, but not he cr9.

supercede
Definition:
To replace in power, authority, validity, or importance.


the p4-ma84-n4 (8.6:1) will be replaced by the p4-ma84-cr9 (9:1)

Wow, i am so glad you can quote a dictionary, the question was why there are no more of the preferred compression/bore for most turbo applications, is this because they stopped making them or what, because while 9.0 is "very similar" it is not the same.

i'd rather have the 9:1 vs the 8.6:1

supertech has discontinued this part, it is being replaced by the cr9.

...I should probably learn about this shiat so I can make an educated purchase rather than just join in and buy since they're cheap.

Thanks for doing the legwork for the deal, whether or not I get to join in. :)

Well that sucketh...

Guess I'm in for set of P4-MA84-CR9.

Do we know what rings they're including?

they are including the rings that go with the pistons (the recomended part#)

I PMed you what I want SOB. Where are my pistons!?!?!?

I'd like the K553M84 Wiseco's. Also, what's this "different valve angles on 1999+"? Interested as these are going into a '99.

i called wiseco on this
"the 94-97 head has different valve angles than the 99+, so pistons for the 99+ head would need to be custom ordered for about 140$ a piece/560$ a set"


i will call supertech to make sure this is not the same for there pistons

I have a set of the 83.5mm 8.6:1 pistons with rings that I'd be willing to trade someone if they order me what I want in exchange. I'd probably go for the 9:1 84mm...

ok, supertech said that the pistons will work

P4-ma7850-n13 – 4 sets in stock

this will end on the 30th,
we have enough to start the orders,
please contact Adam at No Limit Motorsport

PLEASE MAKE SURE U GIVE THE CORRECT PART NUMBER

Is this different-parts-for-99+-heads deal also true for low compression pistons?

this is for off the shelf parts. not custom parts

Just to clarify - how much would 8.6:1 or 9:1, 83.5 or 84.0 mm Supertech pistons for the 99+ cost?

all supertechs are 355$ shipped

In that case, I'm in for the 84mm 8:6:1 P4-MA84-N4 Supertech's.

okay..I will get Supertech 84mm 9:1 P4-MA84-CR9 for 1999 motor.

Is there any information regarding the expansion rate of both pistons? Also looking for what sort of tolerances they use for pistons (in terms of weight and size). I couldn't find any info on the manufacturer websites.

Pistons are $365 shipped, not $355. I know it's not a big deal, but it will save Adam from having everyone say that they were listed as 355 on the forum.

For those of you mourning the loss of the 8.6:1 piston, I just got off the phone with Supertech. Martin told me that I was the third person who had called about them recently, and that they're going to have a meeting about putting them back into production. Lead time, if they decide to go ahead, will be appx 6 weeks, and the vendor price will be unchanged.

The question, of course, is what effect this will have on the GB. I gave Martin my phone number and asked him to let me know what they decide one way or the other, so hopefully we'll have something to go on before too long.

Tyson, what are the odds that we can get NoLimit to extend the GB for those of us who want to wait for the lower CR piston? If we get a commitment from SuperTech, perhaps we could do a pre-order and have them delivered when available?

nobody wants to trade my supertech 8.6:1 new in box 83.5mm pistons for something else? if most people dont care and one person does, this is a great opportunity :P

I would, except I don't have the engine I'm going to use in-hand yet. My fear is buying them and then finding that the cylinders are too far gone to take a 83.5mm set/

the reason they had 3 ppl call is cause i called twice...
talked with martin and willy

Somone convince me what ones to buy. I have 2 1.6L motors both in cars that i can build. Or i can grab a 99 motor with an unknown problem for like 300. Or i can get a 2001 motor for 650. What one should i build?

I got M-Tuned rods so now i need to find what motor i want to build and i have to get in on this GB.

Plans are for a fast track/street car. Goal of 300 WHP

if ur pockets are need, go with a build like y8s or a build like paul

Possibly me.

what's the status of GB?

Tyson..if they can't make Supertech 84mm 8:6:1 P4-MA84-NA4 then I will take Supertech 84mm 9:1 P4-MA84-CR9

Supertech 84mm 9:1 P4-MA84-CR9 is what u will need.
call adam and place ur order.

thank you..just put in an order with Adam.

only 3 have paid so far

My first & second choice of pistons have both not worked out, I'm debating what I want to do now. Maybe a group buy on thicker then OEM head gaskets for those of us that wanted 8.6:1 CR? lol.

call adam, talk to him tell him what u want, i would prefer the cr9 myself,

I just ordered the P4-MA84-CR9 from Adam.

Just to let you guys know, he said these pistons are on back order and should ship directly from Supertech in 2 weeks or so.
