You won't need pistons so spend that money elsewhere

+1 on that I had a k03s hybrid on my golf when I had it and I didn't do the pistons or the rods . so like waz says spend the money else where .

I checked with littco when I picked it up and he said get rods this is a 300bhp that miles had the same spec and he blew his engine up so doing everything I can to stop so a clutch will be brought instead of pistons but I am still getting rods cause I am guessing it will be quite torquey  :evil: but need to know om the wrist pin wether it's 19mm 20mm or 21mm

That would be 19mm wrist pins I believe. If you still want different pistons you could get a set of 20mm wrist pin con rods and chuck a set of agu or bam pistons in?

The only difference in the bam pistons are the 20mm wrist pins and a slightly lower compression ratio, 9.3:1 instead of 9.5:1 not sure they're worth it unless you can get them cheap!

I reckon you'd be fine in stock pistons. Clutch wise it depends, if this is gonna be your daily driver I'd stick with the usual g60 flywheel and vr6 clutch combo. If you're after anything stronger than that its depends on your wallet!

Well the problem is it will be a daily but will be running over 300bhp and as I said will be quite torque from.what I understand so I wasn't sure if the g60 vr6 would hold or not. Piston wise I am gonna leave them unless I manage to finds them cheap enough and I doubt they will make a massive difference anyway
