4x Rgx, 4x Rgy Pistons (where To Get It?)

[boeseturbo 1]

Hi!

 

I'am rebuilding two engine, first one a RGX-engine, second one a RGY-engine (both 2l turbo, one with dished pistons, one with flattops pistons).

 

The company who bored the cylinders say, Mahle, KS and one other unknown company hasn´t got this pistons.

Did anybody know where I can get these pistons for 0,25mm bored cylinders?

 

 

Cheers

which has the dish, i'm guessing its the RGY because it runs lower compression?

Flat-Top is RGY

with dish is RGX.

 

There aren´t aftermarket "standard" pistons availble?

Why not just check Peugeot or Citroen?

well thats not what i would have expected, peugeot must have been trying to improve off boost performance with squish (or something equally technical ) in in the higher comp version... maybe

A good rule of thumb is to get the pistons first, and then get the block bored afterwards

Hello,

 

In french forums, the fashion now is to put Wossner piston. They are mostly in 86,5. They are around 700 euros in France.

 

Here a post for used ones.

I just asked now for custommade ones directly at Wiseco, Greenspeed and JE-Pistons.
