    Not directly with the pistons but I have dealt with Nick Arias that owns the company a couple of times, very nice guy and they seem to really know their stuff. I was thinking of calling them to do pistons for the EZ30R motor that I want to build. What did they qoute you for the EG pistons.

    For 6 Custom Pistons was 830 Shipped. So kinda in the air about it, but Probably best to just drop the money and go forged.

    Thats not that bad, I was thinking of using narrowed STI rods and custom pistons in the EZ30R, it looks like they are about 1mm to wide. I think I might be able to jig them on the surfacer at my uncles shop and take the width off I need, then all I would have to do is grab a set of pistons. That setup should be good to 800whp without any problems.

    Yeah fortunately the pin length is the same on the vg30 rods as the vg33 piston. Just have to find a place to get the block cleaned up and balanced. No idea where in va yet. About to start a compressor map thread would be interested in your input, regarding compressor selection.
