Default Piston for MAXPower S3 - Please help

Hello guys...

Just needed to buy a new Piston/sleeve set for my MaxPower S3...
But I ended up with two sets:

- NRSRS12-S3 - Microcasted

- NS12S3 - CNC-Machined


Any suggestions?

cheers...

Well, to my understanding, Microcasted is better IF you know how to properly tune an engine. Microcasted is not as forgiving as CNC-Machined when it comes to overheating an engine due to a bad tune. If you are 100% sure of your tuning skills go with microcasted, otherwise go with cnc machined. Probably someone else can explain in detail why this happens.
