P29, theyre gonna bump your comp really really reallly Hiiiii, but youll need lots of tunning to run those pistons on pump gas
Btw why you wanna swap pistons?

want to swap because i have an oil leak from somewhere on the left side of motor, so i'm just going to pull the motor and change all the gaskets. so while i have it out i might as well do something.

Explain why????
Vitaras will bring comp down and that wont help in any way unless hes boosting later.

PM3's from the d16a6, those will give you "streetable" compression ratio....i'm trying to say you'll be able to run 91 octane.

exactly... u dont wanna go to high.. definately more compression the better but 2 much equals problems... i usually dont go over 11.8:1 on the street and not over 12.8:1 on a weekend smasher...
