   Are the wiseco forged pistons and rods a good quality item? Im looking at the 78.5 mm high comp pistons and scat h beam rods and theyre about $760 so roughly 500 quid for both. But im sure ive seen that wiseco are a good quality item. Is this the case or is that the price for a good reason?

   I know welshpug thats what I thought really. Obviously there will be import duty and delivery to pay on top of that so maybe not that cheap

   potentially copies...or maybe theyre just branching out into more car parts... cheaper price always draws ppl in and then the rep builds itself up
   
   but in all fairness..its normally alot cheaper importing stuff anyway.. they dont have half the taxes we do
   
   speaking to some of the greek and turkish build owners..they get huge GT series turbos etc for buttons compared to what we pay
