they are a cast hypertectic...(spell check).... piston..... they are ok to be honest.....

i have heard nippons are ok in boosted apps but...... 500 is a bit over the top.

cast pistons tend to crack in big chunks..... i have seen where people have really destroyed them using nitrous.

they are just a bit more brittle and do not have the uniform structure a forged piston does...... so..... below 400 i say your safe.... but who am i

I have a customer that used them in his H23vtec high comp all motor setup. The first set broke in about 2 months and the second set lasted about 3 months. They were cracking ringlands on a all motor setup. We put in a set of Mahle's and it has been fine for a while. Only real experience with them.

I had a set in an all motor B18C5 setup with 11:1 comp. The last I heard they had about 12K miles on them and still running good cause I sold the car, but I have no idea about boosting them....
