what brand/type of cam and pistons would be best suited to a 93 VTi civic running D16Y SOHC vetc w/boost??

And the price of these would be good as well.

Thanks

Depends on what u want to spend. Crower turbo cam's are always popular and stage 1 doesnt require valvetrain upgrades. Otherwise zex is cool. Weisco 8.5:1 or CP pistions are the higher end of the scale, and SRP pistions are a budget package (made by JE) Otherwise JE made an upper class model which doesn nicely also.

if ur researching pistons of US manufactures, ur engine is the eqvilient of the d16z6 :) happy hunting.

source them online. prices depend on application. the SRP's are the cheaper model and pretty cheap compared to others.

Do you think these are sufficient enough for the civic with TD-04 running moderate boost.??
Do you think croyden would be good to sourse these as well?
