Mad Professor 7 Posted August 14, 2008 (edited) Good Day All. My poor pug has been off the road for some time now, I have been slowy getting all the parts to do a full engine rebuild. I am now looking at buying the new piston rings, I don't think there is much point in going for standard piston rings, but I don't know what is the dif from standard to uprated ones. Before I had problems with the engine is was running aprox 250bhp, once it's rebuild I am going to be aiming for 275-300bhp. So I need somthing that is not just going to give up a year or two down the road. What piston rings do you think I should be going for? Thanks for your time.

Mad Professor 7 Posted September 8, 2008 As I have had very few replys so far I have desided that I am not going to use OE piston rings when I rebuild my engine. But I still have the same problem as before what piston rings should I go for? is there a good make / bad make. I am only going to be running a max of 1.5bar of boost. Thanks for your time.
