Anyone you ask will give you a different answer on this.

I plan to go to a 10:1 compression, run a small pulley and replace the head gasket. I'll be running close to 20lbs of boost, but the car will use it more efficently (higher compression) and be able to hold it.

But yeah, every body will have a different explaination.

You can have them coated its optional and the prices arent to bad to add it on either.

the fact that they are already coated is what already has me sold on the intense pistons. and i wont be ordering for some time... but arent they the same ones that alpha said you would need to have your rods machined for the pins if you stick with stockers that is? or is that gonna be the case with all the diamond pistons?
