Toda Pistons and FRM cylinder walls
Will the toda pistons or any forged piston be okay w/ the fiber-reinforced metal cylinder walls of the f20c block? Ive seen quite a few prelude motors torn up pretty bad because of them not resleeving and going onto forged pistons.
Any info would be appreciated.
Hope this falls into technical.

In my opinion, the cost of installing these in a non-sleeved motor with the potential of it failing is not worth the cost of just having it sleeved. In short, I wouldn't trust it, but all of my motors are sleeved

i e-mailed todas distributor here in the united states. They said it works fine, no sleeving boring or honing needed.
But i would love to hear from someone who has actually done it.
Thanks for Reply

Only the Prelude, NSX, and S2k use FRM liners.
