What brand of pistons are best for an engine with up to 500whp.

Everybody will have their favorite piston. Most high end builders seem to be using CP(or have custom pistons manufactured by CP) with the ceramic coatings and the skirt and the face.

At that power Level we have used all of these:

CP's
JE's
Mahle's
Arias Piston's - Our favorite

I will suggest you have the piston tops coated and the skirts done as well.

Good point Howard.
Are Mahle pistons come with coating already?

Why is Arias is your favorite?
