Description
Upgrade your Volkswagen 2.0T TSI engine with the JE Pistons Part Number 345812, a high-performance forged piston set designed for demanding applications. Crafted from 2618 aluminum in the USA, these pistons deliver exceptional tensile strength and durability for both street and racing use. The 82.5mm bore size and 9.6:1 compression ratio optimize power output and efficiency, making them ideal for high-performance upgrades. The inverted dome/dish design enhances combustion efficiency while maintaining engine clearance. Each piston features a proprietary forged side relief (FSR) design that reduces friction and power loss by minimizing skirt width and incorporating a shorter wrist pin, contributing to improved throttle response and overall performance. The accumulator groove, depending on the application, helps reduce pressure from combustion gases, decreasing ring fluttering and promoting consistent sealing for reliable power delivery. Additionally, the skirt coating, where applicable, minimizes friction and wear on the piston skirts and cylinder walls, while also reducing operational noise for smoother engine operation. This piston kit includes high-quality wrist pins, locks, and JE Pro Seal premium piston rings, ensuring a complete and reliable upgrade. Fully manufactured in the USA, these pistons are engineered specifically for each engine and application to maximize durability and performance, whether you’re building a drift car, drag racer, or high-performance street engine. Note that these pistons are not carb-approved but are suitable for applications requiring high strength and precision. Enhance your engine’s capability with JE Pistons’ proven race-winning technology, engineered for ultimate durability and performance in demanding automotive environments.
