personally I prefer Custom CP Pistons.
Get ahold of Venom and ask them about their 12.5:1
you can run it on premium pump. That's my choice.
I had a Velocity Racing Custom CP that was 14.5:1 and loved it, but I dont wanna run race gas unless i have to.

I have a CP in mine and haven't had a complaint.
CP is the best of the best

im installing it friday LOL.
i did the research on brand b4 i bought it on this website and YFZtech.com
and vertually everyone said the for the YFZ the CP pistons where the way to go.
as for the custom cuts i didnt really look into it much due to the fact that i knew they'd be at least $40-50 more
and i would MAYBE get half a HP more...... ill keep my self piston
if i where going higher compression like a 14.5:1 then thats a different story custom makes a segnificant difference.
u understand what im saying??
ive seen ALOT of ppl on all these sites running these pistons and never encountered any problems.
i cant say ive herd the same about JE and Wiesco.
bro i can get u some comparison pics of stock vs. CP if that will help u any
God Luck
