right ive done a 1000 miles did a oil change to semi today my car sounded tapetty my 2.2 is new crank niteated/wiseco pistons/r1 h beam rods/cosworth bearings fully stress balanced wanted to know if the pistons are noisey
Yes mate ive got wiseco oversize piston's in myn and she makes a fair noise from cold start-up tbho but get's better and better the warmer she get's to the point of full operating temp when you don't hear them any more.
How do you mean by noisey? Very noisey? Reason i'm asking is i'm looking at a forged build and was still deciding on what pistons? Or is that the norm with all forged pistons?

Virtually all forged engines are noisey from cold start mate given the larger tolerance's as forged piston's expand more then the cast type.
Very normal though but some are worse than others.
