Can I use these pistons for boost? - 04/01/18 04:41 PM
So I have a set of beautiful and new Mahle 4032 pistons for my project. They are the powerpak pistons with the big piston pin size ( .945") and the Mahle coatings and so on.
I called Mahle and they said the pistons are good to 15psi boost.
What do you guys think? I have heard stories of 4032 pistons breaking in supercharged applications. I would like to be somewhere around 10 lbs of boost for my engine.
Basically I need to know if I should sell these, or if I can use them as they are.
