What kind of pistons are in the 3.0CLs?

i assume the pistons in the 3.0 CL are hypereutectic (sp?) does anybody know of any sites that you can get forged pistons? because everyday im thinking more and more of getting a CT S/C package and i dont want my car to fucking explode hahaha... wouldnt it be too risky to leave the bottom end stock with a supercharger?

The engine will be fine w/ the supercharger. Your tranny is the problemo.

No need for a piston swap, just for the S/C.


Hell, I'm running as much, if not more power from N2O, and there's no problems with the engine. It's the tranny that worries me.

no need for a piston swap, but why not do it? It'd be a smart move

pistons will help, but when you do the pistons, do a p&p, and change the valves out and the valve springs and maybe some new injectors

then your be set

Well since your spending a crapload on an SC why don't you just spend a little bit more and get one of those trannys from v6p.net? The ones that are supposed to handle some rediculous amount of hp.
