Wiseco VLKSWGN 1.8T 5v Dished -7cc 81.5 Piston Shelf Stock Kit

When you're building a serious performance engine, especially for racing applications, you need components that can handle extreme stress. This kit from Wiseco gives you a full set of four forged pistons, designed specifically for Volkswagen and Audi 1.8T engines. These aren't your everyday replacement pistons; they're built from the ground up for demanding performance builds where reliability under heavy load is critical.

Wiseco crafts these pistons from 2618 aluminum, a material chosen for its improved tensile strength, which is essential when dealing with the high cylinder pressures found in performance engines. The pistons feature a -7cc dish volume and a bore size of 81.50 mm, with a compression height of 1.2885 inches and a pin diameter of 0.7874 inches. They also come with precision ring grooves, anti-detonation grooves, and features designed to improve ring seal, all contributing to better combustion efficiency and durability. The fully machined crown and forced pin oiling further enhance their ability to withstand severe duty. Plus, the ArmorGlide skirt coating helps reduce friction and resist seizure, leading to quieter operation and extended piston life.

This set is designed to fit a range of popular Audi and Volkswagen models, including the Audi A4, Audi TT, Volkswagen Beetle, Golf, Jetta, and Passat. Remember that these pistons are not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. For a robust engine build that can take a beating, these Wiseco pistons are a solid choice.
