Depends on what you call big boost?

A lot of people have a million different opinions on piston rod combo's. John Shepard runs Crower/Ross setup, thats a 8 sec piston rod combo

Then you have Dave Buschur and his 8.9 run in his conquest, thats a JE Crower Setup. Keep in mind that on their conquest, hte wastegate barely even opens in the 1/4 since they run so much boost. Just something to think about.

Here is the list of Pistons and Rods for our cars, feel free to add to it if i leave one off.

Pistons: Arias, Weisco, JE, Ross, AEM

Rods: Grode, Crower, Pauter, Eagle, Carillo A-beam, Carillo H-beam, AEM

Thats all of the ones i know of, Grode will be the most expensive, lightest! If i build another motor that is the rods im gonna use.
