If its for strength or t withstand heat or something, you can get coated pistons designed for boost or n2o applications.

They aren't coated. They are forged as opposed to the cast pistons that come stock.

i doubt they do. titantium is a bimetal (i think thats what its classified as), it grabs other metal. aluminum against steel is ok. but, titantium against steel would rape the shit outta cylinder walls
