DO NOT use cast pistons on a forced induction car....thats a recipe for disaster.
OP...Did it brake the near the compression ring? excessive carbon buildup on the piston will cause detonation. If the engine was burning oil, that will cause detonation as well. detonation = broken ring lands

i was talking about the factory cast slugs. forged pistons are awesome. but, most people wont need that until you start adding some serious boost.
