Peace cb7 fam. I wanted to start this thread, though I know this has been discussed @ nauseam. This is not to re-ignite an old topic but to add information and a possible solution to the H-series FRM cylinder liner conundrum.
After much research and hair pulling I may have found some possible solutions and piston options. However it may be contingent upon interest.
I have recently been in contact with a local company in VA called InlinePro. They have contracted CP to manufacture FRM pistons for the S2k. Because inlinePro has a successful clientele base CP can manufacture a set of these pistons at a comparable cost to all the other forgeed piston manufacturers. The upside being that FRM owners will not have to sleeve @ power levels under 500hp!!!
I'm sure if we can show enough interest and possibly spark a group buy to demonstrate demand in the H-series market we could have a solid option for pistons that would not require sleeves under 500hp.
Right now, a lot of tuners and companies do not know that there is a market for the H-series. It is a lesser known motor and many companies do not believe it can make good power. Here alone I have seen quality build producing power that can rival or exceed any K-series or F-series motor in the 4Cyl class. BoostedBoiz on YouTube runs a USDM H22 making 700hp off of the stock sleeves. He is currently running the Mahle Golds with a mild home, however he has already gone through one set of pistons and had slight scarring on the Cylinders. These motors can be formidable if there is enough support. The goal of this thread is to gauge that interest and show that there is a market fo H-series FRM pistons.
This is a huge opportunity! I am not selling anything I just want to see us all benefit from this opportunity. If we can get some chatter going I will be sending multiple communications to the company. I will be sending specs and bore sizes to inline pro this week. CP will need to digitize the specs and the pistons before production. I think we can do it! We have enough members who have built these motors!!
Let's get these positions on the marked and end the FRM debate!!!
