Anyone used Arias pistons recently! I heard they have a new design that is better than the old ones. I am trying to decide wether to get the Arias shelf pistons for my car or get custom pistons from some other compay since I can't find anyone else with pistons for my car. Importbuilder says they are sweet but what do you all think!

If Endyn makes pistons for your car I would go with those.

The only company that makes them for my engine is Arias but I may just get custom Wiseco or Endyne.

I'm using new Arias pistons in my turbo b16. I didn't install them myself, but the guys at the shop (Pruven Performance in CT) who did the install were very impressed with the quality. No problems so far!

Thanks for all the replies, I talked to Importbuilder and many other emgine building shops and they said they think the Arias are very good, and Eugene at Pro-Street uses them and he builds some sweet engines.
