Title: 2006 S4R mod?
Post by: muskrat on September 22, 2010, 12:54:07 PM
I'm nearing my 12,000 mile check-up.  Does someone make high compression pistons and is that all that is required?  I love the power as is but hell why not throw something else for a little more umph while it's apart? 
Suggestions are welcome both positive and negative.

FBF has a set of 12.5:1 slugs, I think they're Wiseco.

Probably need a PCIII or such to improve the mixture.

nice.  Thanks.
I'm going to start saving because that will be a BIG bill with the 12k service.  [thumbsup]

Since I'm spending your money, go with the Pistals.

Not to derail your thread, but I'd spend that kind of money on suspension or light wheels.....

Wheels are much more.  Are the Oz worth it?
