JE Pistons Hyundai GEN 9:1 KIT Set of 6 Pistons

This JE Pistons kit gives you a complete set of six forged pistons, along with high-quality wrist pins, locks, and JE Pro Seal premium piston rings. These pistons are forged in the USA using 2618 aluminum, a material chosen for its high tensile strength, which is essential for engines pushed to their limits in performance applications. They are specifically designed for the Hyundai 3.8L V6 Genesis engine, aiming for an optimized balance of performance and durability.

JE Pistons has applied over 75 years of experience to create these pistons. They feature a proprietary Forged Side Relief (FSR) design that helps minimize friction and power loss by reducing skirt width, and they also save weight with a shorter wrist pin. Depending on the specific application, you might find an accumulator groove to help reduce combustion gas pressure, which can improve ring seal and maintain consistent power. Some applications also include a skirt coating designed to reduce friction and wear on the piston skirts and cylinder walls, which can also lead to quieter operation.

This kit is designed for a 3.779-inch bore and offers a 9.00:1 compression ratio with an inverted dome/dish design. It's important to note that this kit is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. For installation, always refer to the manufacturer's instructions to ensure proper fitment and performance.
