Cast N/A vs Turbo

[HotAirGN]

Is there any difference between a turbo stock cast piston and a regular cast such as this

If there is a difference what is a part number to replace a stock Turbo piston for my 87T?

what you want is a 25cc dish piston i believe, for 8:1 compression, these pistons list none of those specs so you may have to call them to get the information. If they are N/A pistons they should be alittle higher compression, maybe upper 8's to a 9:1 but i dont know for sure. hth

The attached link describes the 87 turbo piston.
After market cast pistons won't have the steel insert like stock. Forged pistons are what most people go with.

So in essence if I get whats in the link I will be as good as stock? No better and no worse?

I have seen several post about guys using the hyper pistons in stock to mild performance rebuilds. I have never used them myself.

I have used the TRW Forged (Now Speed Pro). They are equal in weight to the stock piston when using their pin making them a stock replacement.

I have JE in my current combo.
