Our pistons, NA and Turbo, are the shitz!

I have torn down 4 ish different motor (see, I said different, not the 3-4 times of my own 
), in the past year or so. Only one, mine after boosting the NA, has shown any SIGNIFICANT wear on either the pistons or cylinders. And they all had 175k to 220 k on the engines.
I pulled the pistons on my junkyard ej22t score tonight. Out of 4 cylinders, ONE has a single small line. All the hatch marks are still there. The pistons are in great shape with no scuff marks to speak of on the skirts. I am amazed.
So, plain and simple, those 90-94 engines KICK ASS!
