JE already has a good 88mm piston out. With a higher wrist pin location.

What I am more interested in is piston material. I am looking for a low-expansion, aluminum alloy, to allow for tighter piston to wall clearances and better temperature stability.

The only ones I have found (so far) besides factory cast, are Mahle (4032 Aluminum material).

Then go with a cast piston.. all the forged pistons will have a higher moly content and will expand more. Otherwise just set the correct p2w clearance. And allow it to get up to temp..

88mm/13:1, @ off-the-shelf prices would be nice.

It's not a sr20 specific piston

Just curious where this stands. @mazworxracing @mazworxsales, it appears from your last post that you seem intent on the 12.5:1 88mm piston. Is this so? They already offered an 87mm 12.5:1 so The bump to 88 and 13:1 wold have been a nice combo for non-custom pricing.

How much does a VE head bump up the compression to?
