Im doing the same thing on my y8, and JE were my choice pistons, coupled with Eagle Hbeam rods and a nice zex cam. The goal is nitrous eventually...

Really the only way to get fast on a N/A SOHC 1.6 is with a stroker kit and cams. Anything less would really get uncivilized. You NEED displacement for a N/A build - just revving it higher won't get you more torque. The usual way N/A makes horsepower is with high compression ratios.

For as much as you would spend building a N/A d series, you would be disapointed with the final result.
