Won't these make the compression too low on your zetec? If c20xe pistons take it down to 8:1ish in a zetec turbo and they're 10.5:1 in their original application then your 2.1 zetec with c20let pistons would be something like 6:1 surely, or am I missing something?

Fair enough, I stand corrected, but that still sounds as if it'll pickup like a dog off boost.
