    Default Pistons and compression

    Was thinking about going with a twin turbo kit and was wondering what would be the best compression ratio and what kind of pistons should i get. Looking to make as much power as possible. Its a forged 383 stroker with tfs heads.

    I have a soft spot for Diamond Pistons. You'll want to call them up with your crank, rods and bore specs handy. Explain to them what power, fuel and compression you'd like to run. And they will spec you out what piston they fell will best suit your application.

    I plan to run roughly 9:1 compression on my TT383. From what I have read if you start going much lower than that you start to sacrifice low end power and drive ability.
