Guys
Are these pistons for the s2k engine?? What about the cams, if so anyone have any dyno specs on them.... With turbocharging motors do you have to run higher compression pistons??? How about with the supercharging units

And look at that piston weight. Holy Mac'l Batman! Dropping 300 g off of 631 g? Yow. No wonder they can raise the redline.
So what's the new redline?

I think it's 10k. Don't they make a new S2k tach with a higher redline? I've never seen a pic of it, though.

Wouldn't the lighter pistons also allow the engine to spin more freely? If so, the redline would come up more quickly and take some getting used to (not that that's bad).

There is a set of analog guages which feature a 180 mph speedo and an 11,000 rpm tach - I priced it a while back because I'm tall and I thought it would be easier to see, it was "ready for this" $2280 CDN / $1480 US - I think I'll change the steering wheel instead.

Hmmm, that sounds like a STACK instrument panel. The price is about right, too.

Anyone know for sure?

Yeah, but there's no picture there. I think it's a modified S2000 cluster myself.
