Compression ratio's equal which is more ideal for a turbocharged motor?

flat top??

dished??

I have a set of brand new (used for 300 miles) 2.0 flat top Euro pistons and cylinders on my current motor. The motor is sitting on my workbench waiting for me to finish putting it back together.

I do not want to drop the motor in a few months when I get around to finalizing a turbo design for it.

Just put it together and go. The difference (if any) is not worth the extra hassle of waiting around for a new set of pistons, nor the $$ you'll have to eat from buying a different set of pistons than what you have now.

Put it together and drive it, Mike!

Besides, I'm pretty sure you'll be pulling the motor apart again in three months anyway, no matter which way you go! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
