Supertech Ford Ecoboost 1.6T 79mm Bore -5.4cc Dome 10:1 CR Pistons - Set of 4 (Excl Rings)

This Supertech piston set gives you four forged pistons specifically made for Ford Ecoboost 1.6T engines. You'll get the pistons themselves, ready to be paired with your chosen rings, which are sold separately. These pistons are built with a 79mm bore and a -5.4cc dome volume, resulting in a 10:1 compression ratio. This setup is ideal for rebuilding or upgrading your engine, aiming for improved performance and reliability.

Forged pistons like these are a significant step up from cast pistons. They start as a solid block of aluminum alloy that's heated and hammered into shape under immense pressure. This process aligns the metal's grain structure, making the piston much stronger and more resistant to the extreme pressures and temperatures found in a performance engine. The 10:1 compression ratio is a popular choice for many Ecoboost builds, offering a good balance between power gains and pump gas compatibility, though tuning will be essential to take full advantage of these components. The -5.4cc dome is designed to work with specific cylinder head volumes to achieve that target compression.

When you're undertaking an engine rebuild with these pistons, remember that proper balancing of all rotating and reciprocating components is crucial for longevity and smooth operation. Ensure you have the correct piston rings, wrist pins, and connecting rods that are compatible with these pistons and your specific engine build. Always refer to the manufacturer's detailed installation instructions for precise clearances and procedures.
