well my car crapped out on me today and i think i might need new pistons, but not for sure yet tho. all i was wondering was where would be the best place in your opinions to order 2nd gen 3sgte Engine parts from.
i really don't have the time to mess around with a bunch of online stores that claim they have my part but really don't if u know what i mean. -------------------- 1st car- 1994 Celica GT 2.2L 5s-fe SOLD
2nd car- 1995 Celica ST 2.0L 3s-gte SOLD Current car- 1996 Z28 Camaro 5.7L LT1 |

When I had my Talon TSI, I had it fully built up. It had a big 16g turbo, 264/272 hks cams, decked the block and head, ported/polished, bored .020...I was told to go with JE inverted dome top pistons (forged). They were awesome (they're made to handle big power and above from turbos, nos, and superchargers. I recommend them...I know they can be custom made too. (the inverted dome top was for added valve clearance support...I know you want to keep the compression down on a turbo motor, but I didn't add an exhaust mani...I got a 2nd gen and bolted it right on).
