One problem that could come about with a strocker kit and high boost levels is that by boring out the cylinders to fit the larger pistons in, you decrease the sides of the cylinder walls which weakens them. This kit would increase torque, especially in the lower rpm range, but might present problems later, I emphasize might though because you could be fine. Also, since its coming from Japan chances are very good that it'll be pretty expensive. You'd probably be better off just getting some JE or Arias pistons with some custom rods.
