So, are those custom made for your Skunk2 Fit R only? Can I order those from you guys ? If they make those now, can you give me Wiseco parts number for these : Pistons, Connecting Rods, Main Bearings, and Connecting Rod Bearings. Thanks alot guys. And also, how much boost do you think the stock internal Fit can handle? I'm afraid I could not find those parts here in Indonesia.

Yes, the pistons were a custom part for the engine. I'll check with our engine builder on the boost.

I checked with our engine builder, he said it should be able to take around 7 pounds. More is possible depending on the set-up.

Don't know, you'd have to call Autowerks and ask them. We left those decisions to them.

If the car had been tuned and working alittle earlier in the competition I think the Fit would of got 2nd place instead of 3rd but did I hear correctly that running on all 4cyliders the little 1.5L put out 210hp?! with the 3cyliders it put down 141hp
