Wiseco VR6 12V forged piston VW Golf 3 AAA

Wiseco Forged pistons for the VR6 12V VW Golf 3

Made in USA

The forged pistons are recommended from an output of 300 hp. Thanks to the high-quality aluminum alloy, the pistons are lighter, more stable, more temperature-resistant and can withstand higher loads than standard pistons.

The compression is reduced. As a result, significantly higher pressures can be achieved than with the standard pistons. Even excessively high boost pressures of up to 3.5 bar are no problem with a sensible tuning and corresponding engine setup.

It should also be noted that the webs between the piston rings are 5-8 mm wide (instead of just 3-5 mm as with other pistons).
This is crucial at high boost pressures.

You can opt for the following options:
Compression ratio 9.0:1 (with 1.65mm head gasket)
82.00 / 82.50 / 83.00

Compression ratio 10.5:1 (with 1.65mm head gasket)
