you wouldnt want high compression pistons if you were running a turbo.
If your worried about the tunning
Other than that, if you want power you should go for high compression pistons

Lucky, if you are in the states, you can also check http://www.jdmenginedepot.com in Jersey. I'm not sure what shipping will be out to you but they have pretty good prices and I don't believe they are too bad on shipping either. Might be able to find one cheaper than corksport. That's where I got my klze and I got it for 799, but luckily I live in Jersey so I picked it up. You can also find their engines on ebay, just by typing in the engine code. They are at all the local shows and they have a fairly large stock. Last time I checked they had atleast 50 engines on hand and a few front clips from various jdm cars.
sold it to a friend.93 green MX-3 with ZE swap. KL36 ecu, modified carbon fiber intake from a civic hatch. Centerforce Dual Friction clutch from MX-6. black Konig Minuz wheels, Synthetic fluids, 3 gauge pillar pod with air/fuel, water temp and oil press. Autometer Shiftlight. B&M short shifter. 2.25 piping with a Greddy SP1 muffler, AWR urethane front motormount, pheno spacers, Intrax Springs, Mazdaspeed Sideskirts. The New Ride is a 2003 1.8t a4

Find a front clip of a vehiclie containing the SHO motor and then you should be able to do it easily. Waste of time and money , btw.
