Product Details

If you're rebuilding the engine in your VW 1.8T 20V and pushing its limits, this set of four forged pistons from JE Pistons is built to handle the stress. JE Pistons has been making high-performance pistons for over 75 years, and this kit is engineered specifically for the 1.8T 20V engine to give you the best combination of strength and durability.

These pistons are forged in the USA from 2618 aluminum, a material known for its high tensile strength, which is crucial for engines under heavy load. They feature JE's proprietary Forged Side Relief (FSR) design, which helps reduce friction and power loss by using a narrower skirt and a shorter wrist pin, saving weight in the process. Depending on the specific application, these pistons may also include an accumulator groove to help reduce combustion gas pressure, leading to better ring seal and consistent power, and a skirt coating to further reduce friction, wear, and engine noise.

This kit comes complete with high-quality wrist pins, locks, and JE Pro Seal premium piston rings, so you have everything you need to get your engine rebuilt. Please note that this kit is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California.
