Wisco Pistons

I have a 04 king kat with nitrous and a pipe. I have to do a rebuild, and was wondering what pistons i should put into it? Should i stay OEM pistons or should i try wisco pistons? Any thoughts would be great.

Re: Wisco Pistons

I put Wiseco's in my Doo 02 800x beginning of last year. I have about 400 km on them and its a completely different sled wish I had put them in a year earlier. Just make sure you warm the sled up before you really start to rip.

Re: Wisco Pistons

Thanx summitx was just going to say for those who dont give the sled a proper warm up wiseco pistons are a bad idea as they are famous for the FOUR corner score, otherwise awsome pistons and highly recommended.

Re: Wisco Pistons

I always start my sled on the trailer before I gear up. Put my stuff on and by the time I am ready, it is warmed up and ready to rock. Zero problems and the grin factor has been huge over the stock pistons, two rings instead of the stock one, compression was over 140 lbs / cylinder after the rebuild.

Re: Wisco Pistons

I have been told not to run wiseco but it seems a lot of people have had good luck with them. I put a set of RK-Tech duel ringers in my sled and it seems more peppy than before but then again, its a fresh top end a person should notice a difference. I got them from mountain magic and they were a little cheaper than OEM.

Re: Wisco Pistons

Last year I paid just under $500.00 for the Wiseco's (included wrist pins and needle bearings), a new thermostat and gasket kit. OEM was considerably higher.

Re: Wisco Pistons

For sure OEM is way more. $300/piston from ski-doo and thats just a piston, no bearings or wrist pin. The RK pistons came in at $520 for everything tax in.
