I know forged pistons and crank are going to be a lot stronger, so they can support more power, but other than that, iono...

forgeed pistons and a forged crank are Far stronger. they will allow you to boost more than you could with stock internals. they will also last much longer.

No, they are just make a stronger engine. BUT- as soon as you get some more air and fuel in that baby, she'll take almost anything you'll throw at her.
Get forged and nos (if you dont boost.....wait....actually, do both) -------------------- NASA/SCCA RX-7....currently under the knife

arent the stock cranks ok for any of the power that the 5sfe will make , but forged is the way to go if you want power ,

those parts wont make any more power unless the pistons raise the compression ratio of the engine, or if the crank increases the stroke of the engine. Both of those are difficult to make work properly.

The 5sfe crank is forged.

Yep get Pauter I-beam rods, JE 8.5:1 pistons, ARP headstuds, a metal camry hedgasket and you can throw a lot of boost in there. Providing you got the fuel for it. This post has been edited by Fox-N-It2: Aug 3, 2004 - 12:45 AM |
