Just checking in here as specified by the lengthy rules. I've lived in Columbus for about 5 years. I am mostly a motorcycle rider but I also have a passion for cars, though mine is strictly a grocery getter and not worth mentioning here. My current ride is a 2006 Suzuki GSX-R 600 silver on black. http://i705.photobucket.com/albums/ww58/hammertimeosu/IMG_0222.jpg w/ plastics off for winter maintenance. Sorry I don't have a better pic of this one on hand. Also formely owned a 89 CBR 600 flat black with a +2 sprocket, vance&hines pipe basically set up for drag. This is no longer mine but I used to take it to Quaker Steak and Lube frequently for bike night so someone might recognize it. http://i705.photobucket.com/albums/ww58/hammertimeosu/motorcycle1.jpg http://i705.photobucket.com/albums/ww58/hammertimeosu/MP8R3624f.jpg In short that's about it. Suggestions, questions? Cheers!

Uh, These are the forgings that have been running successfully since 2002 in the highest horsepower LS cars without issue. Wiseco has been producing these parts for the LS market longer than about anyone except Lunati (and they now sell our pistons exclusively as well). Wiseco was the first with a 2.250 pin length forging and they've been copied (sorta kinda) by about 4 other manufacturers already. Wiseco has the largest selection of LS stocking pistons and they've got a lot of advanced features not found on any other brand. Coatings, LS multifit pockets, offset pins, Nitride/Napier rings, etc. Many of these features are being copied by others as we speak. Let me get straight to the point. There hasn't been one documented issue with the forging breaking where you're speaking of. Wristpins should be swapped to the thicker tool steel ones at about 1000whp, but we've had our standard pins run to 1100whp without issue. With Nitrous, I favor going to tool steel pins with a 300 shot (even if it's only a 800whp engine) due to the pressure spike. If you favor full round pistons, that's cool..but the notch in the pin boss to clear the reluctor ring is the number one cause of failures in the pin boss area of our competitors. If you have any pistons that have come apart PERSONALLY, you need to shoot me an email at bnutter@wiseco.com We'd be happy to look at them. Now here's what I can tell you is fact. Most of the 7 seconds cars out there are running Wiseco's. Many of the top turbo engine builders have switched to Wiseco from other brands because our pistons can run 2 and 3 times as many runs as other brands. Mike Brown, LMR, Steve Turley, Paul Majors and many others run them in their 7 second cars. Kurt Urban, Billy Briggs, ERL, HK enterprises, Texas Speed, LME, Vette Doctors, and host of of other top 20 LS engine builders run them nearly exclusively in their engines. Feel free to email any of them and let them know I asked them to speak to you frankly about who makes the best pistons. They won't post it on the internet, but they'll tell you on the phone. Wiseco is the number one piston maker on the ongoing ls1tech poll. 55 percent choose Wiseco and the next brand down is roughly at 35%...hardly anyone else on the map. These are guys that know these engine and have run everyones parts. GMHP also demanded our parts for their upcoming crate engines. As I said before, if you're being fed this info from one of out competitors, that's common. They've got to do something to knock us down because their parts sure as hell don't. There are some parts that "appear" to be like ours, but there are some very big differences from "x" forgings compared to our strutted parts where the struts angle "in" to the skirt from the pin towers. We bring the parts into our lab all the time to check their status as horsepower goes up. They've been amazingly crack free for the power run through them. I appreciate you offering Ray advice, but the pistons he's running are the best. Hopefully you'll change your mind about our parts when you see his beast run. You're invited to email me at bnutter@wiseco.com and I'd be happy to bring you up to speed on our latest innovations. Regards, Brian Nutter -Wiseco Automotive
