Yeah 002-M-P..you are correct. Realize that ~25psi is near ~675rwhp (in GReddy's case at least). The zero silicon version costs nothing to get Arias to forge them in that instead of what they normally use (not sure what the normal material is).

I don't know about the CP pistons...seem like a high price for pistons though.

I am pretty sure they call the others high silicon or low silicon, not positive though.

Ahh, thanks.


Regarding the shortblock everyone is talking about...pistons, rods, and ARP head and main studs will get you to ~600-650rwhp...why do I say only 600-650? Because we aren't sure if we're going to need cams to go over that.

It seems like for every section you address will get you 100-250rwhp before you need to upgrade something else. Example: turbo kit: 300-430rwhp, pistons and rods: 430-550, arp head and main studs : 550-600/650, cams: 600/650-800rwhp. (you should think about getting sleeves for 600-800rwhp if it is a daily driver...we aren't really sure about this either)

That's what it is looking like so far.

Sounds good to me.
