   You need pocketed pistons to run them at useful timing.
   Obviously more compression is going to help scavenging too.

   Hi there, I've had the work done on the original pistons to have enough clearance for the valves, compression will be 11:1 as I'm using the C2 head with its standard 0,6mm head gasket

   C2 NFS gets the extra compression mostly from a piston dome, not the chamber.
