Omega Pistons are forged aint they so can take a bit of a beating where standard ones will break up, at a guess i would say they are 1.0 bigger than standard size, this will also increase your cc by about 45-50ish

Of ya talking C20XE engine im almost certian you would have the 0.5 or 1.0 oversized ones, so in reality you got a 2025 or 2050cc engine there, omega pistons are built to take some stick man, whack some TB's on that engine NOW its gaggin for them with that spec
