Well, I swapped a D15B into my car back in march when my A6 decided to crap out on me. Now, I would like to adjust the timing with a timing light, but I don't know what motor specs to go by?
Also, I was doing a little search and reading a bit on this motor and I came across that caught my attention. Is it true that Suzuki Vitara pistons fit in this motor? And if so, is there any modifiying necessary? Or are they a str8 bolt in? And I was reading that they are really strong pistons for boost. Is this true?
Thanks alot guys!

P.S.
I'm enjoying the hell out of this little motor. This little thing has some balls!

Thanks again guys!

Line it up with the marks on the timing belt cover or use the Z6 spec (~16° BTDC).

So those pistons should go right into my D15B Vtec? Without having to do any modding to them?
