Default 85mm 9.0:1 CP Pistons or Wiseco Pistons????

Any suggestions on which brand of piston I should use between the 2 for my boosted LS swap? Planning a full build within the next couple of months, have already ordered Dart sleeves and a Golden Eagle blockguard. I've found Wiseco pistons for a little cheaper price, but have heard so many good things about CP. Any info will help!

They're both good, either one will work. I'd go with the Wiseco if you can get them cheaper, you can't go wrong..

Can't say anything bad about Wiseco pistons they are awesome. I had a set of brand new CP's and they cracked by the valve reliefs. They probably got that issue fixed but I'll never use them again. These were the 81.5mm pistons, I don't know if they had any issues with their 84+mm pistons.

I'm a Wiseco guy, so my opinion is bais. I haven't heard much of any bad against CP...so I would say to get the best deal and run with it.
