Default Do you know of any stronger pistons than JEs ?

Just wondering. Last time I ordered a set of those through JRC Motorsports and was 100% satisfied, but this time we need a new pair for friends RS4 and I'm wandering if there is sth better on the market.

Default They have a variety of blank forgings. Talk to one of their application engineers...

They'll make a recommendation based on what you tell them & then make the parts if you want.

Default JE is great, other oprions are: Mahle, Acralite, Wossner

Have a look here:

http://www.mahleinc.com/

http://www.apico.co.uk/mech/piston_m.htm

Can't find a link for Acralite, but know they are dragster-proven.

JE and Mahle need no introduction, Wossner specialises in German cars. He has recently introduced pistons for the 20v 1.8T

Hope this helps.
