I think a couple pages back someone had tried various pistons and had issues with some, you'll have to watch the piston I.D. for the shaft, some of them are a tad bigger.
When I first setup my car I ran with the 4x1.3 pistons, stock springs and 37.5 and 35 oils and actually felt really good and even couple other guys tried and liked. Now each driver has their own style or skills, so I would say tune the car to the way you drive or how you drive. As you try different things report back or keep others posted.
I will say this though.... a lot of people are using the 2x1.6 with great success, so it must be working. When I changed mine over I was hesitant, but the very next week was able to push the car a little harder and faster and felt more planted.
