Wiseco VW VR6 2.8L 9:1 82mm Piston Shelf Stock Kit

If you're rebuilding the engine in your 1994-1998 Volkswagen Jetta, especially for demanding performance applications, this Wiseco Professional Series piston set is built to handle the stress. These pistons are designed for the serious builder who needs robust components for heavy or severe duty race builds. They are forged and machined right here in the USA from 2618 aluminum, a material chosen for its improved tensile strength, which is crucial for pistons that endure high cylinder pressures and temperatures.

Wiseco has incorporated several features to ensure durability and performance. You'll find precision ring grooves, an anti-detonation groove, and additional ring seal features to help maintain compression and prevent blow-by. The fully machined crown ensures a consistent combustion chamber shape, and forced pin oiling helps keep the wrist pins lubricated under extreme conditions. Plus, the ArmorGlide skirt coating reduces friction and resistance to seizure, contributing to quieter operation and longer life.

This kit includes six pistons, each with an 82mm bore and a 9:1 compression ratio, making them a solid choice for many VR6 2.8L engine builds. Please note 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.
