So the Response was "Like". I maintain the responder does not know and as predicted wore the "Corporates Hat" Note a couple Dead Giveaways. The Texture of the Raw Forging ( Very Smooth as the Forg itself is Highly Polished and Produces a Like Raw Forging) in the Video Compared to What You have and the Pic I Posted. Night and Day. If you Please take a Pic for us of one of these Pistons Upside Down showing the Un-machined Texture. This tells a thousand words. I still maintain what I said.

Well, I don't doubt you know what you're talking and I don't know enough about the forging process to debate the topic.... But I do find it a hard pill to swallow that Taida isn't selling DIE forged pistons. Irregardless if Fanny wore the corporate line or not, the company in the Video is who makes their pistons... Certainly looks like a forged piston to me. Yeah, I'll get a pic published sometime today or tomorrow.

Now I did notice at the top of the video if the response is copy and paste, the rep states like in the video. I believe it was Dmartin95 that stated they were made at that factory. Not saying if the pistons are or are not forged, I don't have the experience to get into that, however I think it may have been a misstatement that their pistons are created at that factory.

Yes, you are correct.... I didn't even catch that (It was the middle of the night when I got the response)... When she sent me the video and it had all the Asian, I improperly assumed that this was the company Taida uses... But yeah, she said it's made like the ones in the video, not specifically that they use the company in the video. That was my mistake. -------------------------------- Piston_Guy Ok, So, I had my wife take some shots... These are Taida GY6 4 valve pistons. the 67mm is forged and the 63mm is not. The bottom of the piston has been ground down to accommodate the down stroke but you should still be able to see what you're wanting to see pistonguy. You also mentioned you wanted to see pictures of the cylinder height so I took shots of those as well. (Normal GY6 150cc cylinder height is 68.8mm) *note: The forged piston(67mm) is ceramic coated, will that interfere with what you're wanting to see? 63mm cylinder height 69.3 Cylinder height 75.2 67mm 67mm Top 63mm Top 67mm Top 67mm Top 63mm Top More pics coming

67mm and 63mm cast and forged side by side 67mm Bottom 67mm Bottom 63mm Bottom 67mm bottom 67mm bottom 67mm bottom 67mm bottom 63mm bottom 63mm bottom You should be able to click on any of the pictures to make them bigger... They're high resolution shots and should provide the level of detail you need.

Nice Pics. I still say the texture is Wrong. There is one nice side view is the best showing me a Porous Texture. You just wont have this Porosity in a True Forging. I stick by it is a Squeeze Casting. I can't come up with a reason the Underside of the Piston has a Coating on it.?? I have some ideas but at this point I'm not going to pass on any info that might help TD. They have ruined any credibility with me over there sending you that Video with Chinese writing on it. and say, we do like this quality. The nerve of them (a Taiwanese) Co. Taking a American mfg companies video and using it.

There is a chance a chance the the Coating Itself may give the piston its appearance. In that case I could be WRONG. But then again. I see this Porous spot on the upper right corner of the Circlip slot big enough to stick a pin in.
So whats the Coating on the Underside all About Anyhow?

My my ceramic comment was a question.... I only know this is a ceramic coated kit, I don't know what all get's coated. I was actually asking you if the ceramic coating would give it a porous look.
