If our cylinders were nikasil coated this would not be a possibility.
So your saying we can use forged pistons If we get our stock sleeves overbored and nikasil coated? or were you talking about stock Honda cast pistons?

even If we could use forged pistons with stock or nikasil coated sleeves we would still have to do someting about the excessive cylinder pressure from 10-15+ PSI right? cause eventually th e cylinder wall will crack from the pressure. now NA is a different story.

some people on H-T asked that on the FI forum I think. They asked If they could just use forged pistons and rods and boost 15 PSI without re-sleeving. But I figure the sleeves become the next weakest link so why not just change them too?
