Honda Civic Vtec B18C4 Turbo Low Compression Forged Piston Kit
Unlock the boost potential of your B-Series engine with the Wossner Turbo Compression Forged Piston Kit, engineered specifically for the Honda Civic Vtec B18C4. Designed for high-performance forced induction builds, this kit drops the compression ratio to 9.0:1 (depending on bore size), providing the essential safety margin needed to run high boost levels on pump or race fuel. Whether you are building a 400bhp fast-road car or a dedicated drag racer, these pistons offer the structural integrity required to handle massive cylinder pressures without compromising on longevity.
Forged from premium 4032-T6 high-silicon aluminium alloy, these pistons benefit from lower thermal expansion, allowing for tighter clearances that eliminate the cold-start "slap" often found in lesser forged internals. To further enhance performance, Wossner applies a unique Moly-based skirt coating to reduce friction and a mirror-polished crown finish to eliminate hot spots and resist detonation. This comprehensive kit includes everything needed for a bottom-end refresh, including high-strength gudgeon pins and a high-performance chrome-faced ring set designed for superior oil control under boost.
Key Performance Features
-
Turbo-Ready Compression: Lowered 9.0:1 CR (standard bore) allows for higher boost pressures and safer tuning.
-
High-Strength 4032-T6 Alloy: Precision forged for extreme durability while maintaining low thermal expansion.
-
Anti-Friction Moly Coating: Skirts are treated with a dry-film lubricant to reduce drag and protect cylinder walls.
-
Mirror-Polished Crowns: Polished domes reflect heat and prevent carbon adhesion, significantly reducing detonation risk.
-
Enhanced Ring Seal: Includes a premium ring set specifically engineered to maintain a perfect seal under forced induction.
-
Internal Weight Reduction: CNC-machined to remove unnecessary mass, promoting faster revving and reduced bearing strain.
