Talking

My car just gained three WHP from being on the same forum as your car. The worksmanship of those is pretty amazing, they look like they belong under glass in a museum, I mean you can barely see the seam at the bottom for the crank cap fer chrissakes. Now get out there and do something worthy of all that craftmanship! Shouldn't that be a Benny under the rod for scale LOL

the Rod is actually heaver but the piston is so much lighter that it evens out, they weigh almost the same as a whole

Dude that is awesome, reminds me of when I was looking into these for my once upon a time turbo build on my civic, but for a fit unbelievable! Good luck on your build, sucks you had to blow a motor to get to this point but I bet that L15 is gonna be a beast! Nice job!
