Re: turbo piston rings wanted.
an engineering shop can get you one but you're gonna need to buy a single piston ring set.

Re: turbo piston rings wanted.
thanks, they do ring set for 4 pistons, not single piston. I have read that you shouldnt put new rings into old bores,any thoughts on that?

Re: turbo piston rings wanted.
As long as the bores are still within tolerance size wise, and are deglazed prior to fitting, new rings in old bores shouldn't cause any problems.hughjohnson wrote:thanks, they do ring set for 4 pistons, not single piston.
