My stock compression in my 5VZ-FE is 9.6:1. How would I go about upgrading my pistons if my only options (that I can find) have the compression ratio of 9.0:1, 10.0:1, and 12.0:1? Or if anyone can send me some performance pistons with the stock compression that’s just as good.

But why tho? Are you going to super or turbocharge it?

Yes

#

This is all based in a semi distant future, just rather learn this now than later

if you're going to boost it, the 9:1 comp piston would be the best choice
high comp engines dont like boost all that much

Exactly that's why i was wondering. Keeping the stock cr when boosting is possible, but lowering it leaves more room for safety/error

Ok perfect

#

Ngl I forgot about this thread but I’ll probably go with the 9:1’s cause I do plan to boost
