Our piston manufacturer, CP Carrilllo, are a subsidiary of Austrian automotive manufacturer Pankl Racing. For those who are unaware, Pankl are the ONLY company outside of the factory F1 and Le Mans teams to produce components for those categories. Thus, CP are party to the most leading technologies and apply this to ALL Nitto pistons. That’s right. If you use CP Nitto pistons, you are enjoying the benefits of world leading technologies and techniques.
At a more technical level, all of our forced induction pistons are designed and manufactured with CP’s 2618 low silicone content Turbo HD forging. Further, we have provided the trusted Gas Nitride ring set with these pistons which come as our standard across the Barra range of pistons. CP 9310 wrist pins, standard across our range, are 100% Rockwell tested, case hardened and are cryogenically treated for improved strength and material grain structure. All of our pistons feature forced double pin oiling, anti detonation and accumulator grooves.
Our piston designs have been been backed by multiple world records across multiple categories.
