Pistons? Long Shot but I gotta ask
Alright so I have my motor sitting at a shop at the moment and they are going to do a short block build. I want to stay stock compression as I do not plan on going turbo. The wiseco pistons come standard 9:1 does anybody know of anyone that has an 11:1 set? I know it's a hail mary but I come home in 6 days after being gone for a year straight in Afghanistan and I was hoping to drive my car while I was home but it's not looking like it now. Any and all help will be appreciated.

If you're not going turbo or forced induction, why not stock?
And why are they doing a short block build to begin with?

V8killer I finally ended up pulling the trigger with chris's kit and yea I'm on board with you on the piston upgrade but if Im not mistaken can't you request a customized job from whoever is supplying your pistons to make an 11:1 compression??

Yes you can! Wiseco says its takes 3-4 weeks for making that custom piston which isn't too bad. My plans have changed again so much miscommunication that I am don't even want to deal with it so I am just getting a new motor put the shot at 125 having Jon at Z1 tune it and call it a day. I'm gonna have to put my GTR manifold up for sale when I get home. If I didn't change my plans and stuck with a built block I would have about 5 grand in just the motor and I wouldn't be able to drive it around after being in Afghanistan for a year straight.
