I am not sure if garm commented earlier in this thread but you can get pistons from him in a variety of thicknesses (compression ratios) so the big reason to use the prius pistons would be to save money.

I can't remember exactly what he said he had but it seems like he had 9:1, 11:1 and a 12:1. I may be a bit off on that one but you could ask him directly.

Saving $$$ is the idea... otherwise your correct you can get Arias Pistons with the CR ratios of 9:1 - 14:1 for the 1NZ...

Basically I just need the Cams and Cam gear with EMS...and I can test out this "prius Pistons" theory - not only will I get a bump from swapping cams from 1NZ-FXE to 1NZ-FE (stock 78hp to 108hp) ..but I should get a small boost from the 10:5 to 11:1 CR increase. I am sourcing a full 1NZ head now.
