    i dont know, just the reponse, power output can still be had and the lower compression and does offer a safer tuning setup but i just wouldn't go that low these days with the tuning tools that we have.

    Sorry bro, my teggy has 890whp on 40lbs of boost and never have had any problems with tuning on the hondata s300 or my current setup on the Accel Gen7 DFI. By the way I have another set of brand new JE Pistons 8:1 comp still in the box standard bore 81mm. LMK if you are interested in purchasing. B16FTW
