What is the advantage of using forged pistons over cast pistons?

Forged pistons, like these from Manley, are made from a stronger alloy (2618 in this case) that can withstand higher temperatures and pressures. This makes them ideal for performance engines that experience more stress than a stock engine.

What is included with this piston set?

This set includes the four pistons, piston rings, and premium chrome moly wrist pins. It is designed for a specific bore size and compression ratio.

Are these pistons suitable for a daily driver?

While these pistons are well-built and durable, they are intended for performance applications. Their design and materials are optimized for higher horsepower and stress levels, which may not be necessary or ideal for a standard daily driver.

About this part

Product Details

Manley Performance is well-known for building robust engine components that stand up to serious use. If you're rebuilding the engine in your 2003-2006 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII or IX, or a similar performance vehicle from the 90s like an Eclipse or Talon, this set of 87.0mm bore, +2.0mm oversize pistons is a solid choice. These aren't just any pistons; they're forged from 2618 alloy, a material chosen for its strength and ability to handle high performance demands. This set is designed for a 10.0 to 10.5:1 compression ratio, giving you a noticeable bump in power without going too extreme for pump gas.

What sets these pistons apart is the attention to detail in their design and manufacturing. They feature proven cam and barrel skirt profiles, which help them run smoothly and quietly while minimizing wear on your cylinder walls. Manley also machines exacting ring lands and grooves, which is crucial for getting a good seal from your piston rings. A good ring seal means better compression, less blow-by, and ultimately, more power. They even use unique fixturing that allows them to machine the ring grooves and the skirt in the same operation, ensuring they are perfectly square to each other. This set includes premium chrome moly wrist pins, and the pistons themselves are coated with a moly skirt coating for added durability.

This piston set is designed to fit a range of performance vehicles, including the Mitsubishi Lancer (2003-2006), Mitsubishi Eclipse (1993-1999), and Eagle Talon (1993-1998). When you're putting together a high-performance engine, using well-built components like these Manley pistons is key to achieving reliable power. Remember that these pistons are not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for proper fitment and assembly procedures.
