Im a noob on turbos!!
Im planning on buying some ebay turbo pistons, i think they are some cheaper pistons of Vitara's.
I was going to put my stock rods and just the turbo pistons on. Is it good for my motor and will it hold the hp? Need Help Asap, Thanks

The rods are the weak link. I would upgrade those while you are going to upgrade the pistons. The LS rods are a cheap upgrade. But all this really depends on your turbo setup and what kind of power you'll be pushing.
