Wiseco Forged Pistons 1.8T 20V with ArmorPlating – Built for High-Performance VW/Audi Engines
The Wiseco forged piston set is the ideal solution for anyone building a 1.8T 20V engine to handle over 300 HP reliably. Manufactured from high-strength forged aluminum alloy and CNC-machined with precision, these pistons offer the perfect balance of lightweight construction, stability, and thermal durability – ideal for turbocharged and motorsport applications.
The exclusive ArmorPlating coating provides an extremely resilient surface for both the piston skirt and ring grooves. It significantly reduces friction and wear, even under extreme conditions such as high boost, prolonged high-speed driving, or full-load racing use.
