so now what i wanna know is: what differences in terms of power will i expect from doing this modification??? i know it will remove my flat spot between 5 - 6 rpm and should make my fuel economy better (depending on how i drive it) but does any one know the power results or anthing else from experience????

thanks alot for all your replies
you actually get the cams that you want first before choosing the pistons. not the other way round.

if you have a itr or ctr cams, then you choose a pistons set that will give you the right compression. not choosing the compression and get the cams as your cams choice will be determinded by your goal.

how much power you will gain? it should be around a standard type r engine if what you are puttings is type r parts.

obviously there could be less if as an engine work harmoniously with other parts of the car and not stand alone.

what i mean, you need to look into the intake system and exhaust system as well.

if the engine is not having enough oxygen to do combustion, your car wont be fast. if your car dont expel the fume at the right volume and velocity, your car wont be taking in enough air (oxygen) either.

You see whats go in must come out before it can be filled again. you cant fill something if it is not vacuum.

every car is different and to ask people around what to expect in my opinion is not accurate. at best it is estimate which can go way off.

hope this answer a bit of your question
