What rings? What rings would be the best for this application.
Forged Ls1, about 9:1, about 14psi from a turbo. Mostly street use, periodic track use. It will be in a 1/2 ton G.M. truck.
May even see a long trip every once in a while. Would love some longevity.
Any thoughts?

Hi Billy, it's Eric. (The guy with the burned up cast pistons) I talked with the guys at ls1speed (a sponser), and I just bought some Diamond turbo pistons and matching rings from them. They told me they use this combination in all of their forced-induction engines. (Turbo & SC)
