GI/GB K1 Forged Rods/Wiseco Pistons

Ok, i am trying to get together a list of COMMITTED buyers for this combo! i DONT want people that will say, yeah i am in and i can pay on july 17 2016... i want people that if we can get the price for in the 750-800 range shipped will be ready to pay NOW!! the combo will be for K1 Std length Rods and Wiseco 9:1 compression pistons, i will need to know the bore you need for example.. Std, .10 over .20 over.. ect.. i am trying to get a list of somewhere between 7-10 buyers or more would be great too. the more the better for prices as you all know. Just put in a post if you are in, i will update the first post with a list.

1. Scott, DSTMSP03 (std bore)
2. Jake, JAKEPSHS (std bore)
3. Mat, MADMAT1987 (std bore, 8.5:1 if not much different in price)
4. James, PROBIN94 (std bore, maybe .10 over)

i'm in stupid question. can i get a 8:5 CR lol

 

[dstmsp03]

that will be a question i will have to ask the supplier.. it might be a few extra $$ unless they can do it same price..
why are you looking for 8.5:1? how much boost you want to run? this k1 with 9:1 can support about 450 hp

 

[madmat1987]

i was just told thats it much safer. up if its goin to be to much i'll just go with 9.1 std bore please.

 

[dstmsp03]

actually its not really.. to be honest it would make you run more boost to compensate for the difference in compression.
9:1 will yield better gains at lower levels of boost. this combo that i am putting together will be ideal for the daily driver protege/msp/p5 fs-de turbo cars. it will give good numbers and be a safe motor to modify!. whats your first name?

 

[madmat1987]

cool thanks 4 that info.

my name is Mat, Mat Martin

 

[dstmsp03]

Thanks Mat, i put you on the list, i will check on the 8.5:1 for you.. i really think you would be happier with 9:1 compression though.. keep in mind that if you think 9:1 is too much, you can always get a thicker cometic head gasket and it will drop you to more like 8.8:1

hmm really. will i'll just get the 9.1 then. and if i wanna change later then i'll get a thicker head gasket. sorry 4 the questions and mucking around

 

[probin94]

if you can get it down to 7-800 im down. id like std bore but would i need an overbore having a high mileage block?

james, probin94

 

[dstmsp03]

more than likely not.. have you ever spun a bearing or bent a rod?
and to be honest its probably going to be in the upper 700s to right at 800.. i have found 2 websites that sell each part individually and the 2 combined total $820.. i am wanting to get around $775 shipping and all

 

[harrisonchang]

when do you need to bore your block out?

 

[Knox Joe]

when do you need to bore your block out?

An engine shop, lol.

An engine shop, lol.

sub'd

lol.. he said when

when you have either spun a bearing, bent a rod or are burning mad oil from worn piston rings

 

[probin94]

well i think my rings are going soooooo

 

[harrisonchang]

who would be providing us with the group buy? I'm considering getting this or a big brake kit. I'd just like some more information.

 

[dstmsp03]

ill personally be contacting several vendors, whichever offers the best price is where they will be purchased, PG is an option right now, speed circuit, as well as a few other places i have in mind, i need commited buyers before i contact to get my pricing.

once the vendor is selected, the members of the GB will be instructed to contact that vendor send payment. all i am doing is facilitating this

2100 posts.. WOOT

cool well will have to have some sort of code so the vendor knows that its a special buy. u know. plus can u yes dstmsp ship my gear (i'll pay 4 the shipping) as pg and cs cost 600 to ship it

I was told by the engine shop that's rebuilding my engine that there isn't much noticeable difference between the two compression ratios since its only about half a compression

the proper way to boost a car is to buy the right parts, not just drop compression.. there is a noticeable difference in 8.5:1. i had them in my car before, but decided i didnt need that much power.. thus why i am downgrading everything to get a better quality daily driver. 9:1 forged internals can yield AMAZING gains with proper tuning and setup.
