pistons back to stock
I want to change out my JE low compression pistons back to stock pistons
I ran boost before and I want to go back stock due to the new emission station in my state.
My question is, will my car run the same and what are the process of doing that . I will be needing new rings from the dealer , but do I need to file them.
Do I have to hone the sleeves? What would you guys recommend?
thanks again

I believe you will need to rehone the cylinders and use new rings. The boost should also be turned down a little until it is fully tuned for the raised compression. Never file the rings though. Just put them in after a fresh honing job.
