CP Piston & Ring Set for Honda D16Z6 - Bore (76.0mm) - Size (+1.0mm) - Compression Ratio (9.0)

If you're rebuilding the engine in your 1992-1995 Honda Civic, especially if you're looking to get more out of your D16Z6, a strong set of forged pistons is a critical component. These pistons from CP Pistons are built to handle increased performance demands, whether you're building a naturally aspirated screamer or a boosted setup. They are designed to be a direct replacement for your stock pistons, but with the strength and reliability that forged aluminum offers over cast alternatives.

CP Pistons are well-known in the performance engine building world. These particular pistons are forged from high-strength aluminum, which is lighter and more durable than cast aluminum, making them ideal for higher compression or boosted applications. This set is specifically sized at 76.0mm with a +1.0mm oversize, meaning they are intended for an engine block that has been bored out to match. The compression ratio is set at 9.0:1, which is a solid figure for a wide range of modifications, offering a good balance between power and pump gas drivability, especially if you plan on adding forced induction. The set includes the pistons and the necessary rings to get them installed.

When rebuilding an engine, it's important to ensure your cylinder block is properly machined to the correct bore size for these +1.0mm pistons. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for precise details on piston installation, ring gap, and any specific lubrication requirements. This set is designed for performance builds and is not CARB approved, so it cannot be shipped to California.
