What pistons and rods people use on the turbo f7p and any experience whit brands ?
No one want s to share his secrets :cooter:
Patiwnce people its sunday afternoon on a bank holday weekend. Most ppl r hungover....lol
I'm using wossner's, HAndy and JP do too but I've heard a few people just the standard piston machined down to lower the comp ratio.
I very much doubt anyone hiding much on here, not sure what the norm is but if you look in the projects section I think there are a few f7 builds going on.
just buy my engine and be done with it :D
As oli points out I run wossner pistons but I do have a set of std pistons which have been machined to a lower cr :) was going to build a second engine for a clio I have but don't have the time :)
Oh and just buy tutuur's engine he's keen to sell :D;)

that's correct
Don't forget if you use f4r rods you will need to use f4r bearing's or f9q bearing's:agree:
I did post a pic sometime back of the comparison of F7p, F4r and K-tec H rods for F7p/r next to each other but I can't find pic's:crap:
What difference is in the bearings then ?Quote:
