Did someone put turbo pistons in my n/t???
 
The machineist was thinking because of the deep dish in my pistons that someone may have swapped out n/a pistons for turbo ones and that was one reason why i wasnt getting any power. Is this possible? I dont have any good pics of my pistons do you guys have a pic of both? Thanks in advance!

I think that means you need to add a turbo. :)

Look at the pics in the other thread with the blown headgasket. Do they look like that?

I cant remember but i think they look pretty close to that does anyone have a pic of a n/t piston?

You may find these useful links, but bear in mind these may be different to the stock Toyota ones. 7M-GE and 7M-GTE I think I may have a GTE Piston in my garage left over from a rebuild. I will post a picture as soon as I can find it.

Dude it's n/a. Not n/t.
natural aspiration, naturally aspirated, whichever.

Photo of 7M-GTE piston, I didn’t have time to clean off the carbon but I think you can see it’s the same as the one in 7M-GTE link. So I think it would be safe to assume the photo of the 7M-GE piston in this link 7M-GE should fairly accurate.

Ya the machineist threw them away already but he had some N/A (happy guy?) pistons he showed me and he said mine were deeper than them but i donno about that. Oh well its getting the right ones now and new! lol i cant wait for my baby to be back together again!
