Hey Saj
Nice to see you on the forum!
I heard on the grapevine that you picked up the kit at inters, you lucky so and so!!
Two piston manufacturers that come VERY highly recommended:
Mahle
Omega
Both make pistons to order (ie you give them one of your normal pistons and specifications for what you want and they'll forge or machine them for you).
(can you tell I've looked into this before
?)
Or speak to AAT as they do a kit (therefore they should also do the pistons).
Or Rothe Motorsport in Germany (they're the 1.6 16v Turbo daddio's!)
And best of all, good luck!!
