CP Piston & Ring Set for Acura B18C1 - Bore (81.0mm) - Size (STD) - Compression Ratio (12.5)

This is a set of forged pistons and rings from CP Pistons, specifically made for the 1994-2001 Acura Integra with the B18C1 engine. If you're rebuilding the heart of your Integra, especially for performance applications, a strong set of pistons like these is crucial. They are designed to handle increased cylinder pressures and temperatures that come with modified engines, ensuring reliability when you push your car harder.

CP Pistons are well-known for their forged construction, which uses a billet of aluminum that's heated and hammered into shape. This process creates a much stronger and more durable piston than cast aluminum, making them ideal for high-performance builds. These pistons have a standard bore size of 81.0mm and a compression ratio of 12.5:1, which is a notable increase over stock. This higher compression ratio helps to extract more power from your engine, but it's important to ensure your engine management system and fuel are tuned to take advantage of it. The set includes the pistons and the necessary rings to install them.

When installing these pistons, it's important to follow the manufacturer's recommended clearances and torque specifications. Because these are performance parts, they are not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. If you're building a high-performance B18C1 engine, this set of pistons is a solid option to consider for the core of your build.
