Wossner Civic B16A 9.0:1 Turbo Low Compression Forged Piston Kit

Wossner Civic B16A 9.0:1 Forged Piston Kit

The Wossner Civic B16A 9.0:1 Forged Piston Kit is the definitive choice for Honda enthusiasts building high-performance B-Series turbo engines. By reducing the static compression ratio to 9.0:1, these pistons significantly increase the "knock window," allowing for higher boost levels and more aggressive ignition timing safely. Precision-forged in Germany, they provide the thermal stability and structural strength required to transform the high-revving B16A into a forced-induction powerhouse capable of sustained high-RPM track use.

Every piston is crafted from 4032-T6 high-silicon aluminium alloy, chosen for its low thermal expansion properties and exceptional resistance to fatigue. Wossner’s advanced manufacturing process includes a signature Moly skirt coating to reduce internal friction and a mirror-polished crown to eliminate the hot spots that lead to detonation. Whether you are aiming for a reliable 300bhp street build or a dedicated drag racer, these pistons deliver the durability and precision clearance necessary for elite engine performance.

Key Performance Features

• Turbo-Ready 9.0:1 Compression: Engineered to lower compression for safer, more efficient turbocharging and high-boost applications.

• Low-Expansion 4032-T6 Alloy: Allows for tighter piston-to-bore clearances, reducing cold-start "piston slap" and extending engine life.

• Advanced Moly Skirt Coating: Minimises friction and provides a layer of protection against scuffing during extreme operating conditions.

• Mirror-Polished Crowns: Designed to reflect heat back into the combustion chamber and prevent carbon buildup or detonation-inducing hot spots.

• Complete Professional Kit: Includes four forged pistons, a high-performance Japanese ring set, gudgeon pins, and heavy-duty circlips.
