Coupe5Oh,

It's not that hard to spell. I didn't have to cut and paste, not trying to bust your chops or anything, just trying to help a brutha out. And when I said read about them, I didn't mean read about how well they perform, I meant read about what hypereutectic means. It has to do with the amount of alloying material in the steel or aluminum. (usually carbon for steel and silicon for aluminum) Hypereutectic pistons are made from an aluminum alloy with more than the eutectic concentration of silicon which I think is around 13%. (may be wrong) Anyway, makes the alloy resist wear and makes it stronger but slightly brittle. That's why they are good for slightly higher HP that cast, but not as good as forged. Just thought people might be interested. Everytime I hear someone talk about hypereutectic pistons they always say "hyper..." and trail off. Not very many people actually understand what that means (or even how to say it) Just thought it might help out to let people know that it's not a huge mystery, you can read about it and it's pretty easy to understand.
