How Much DIFFERENCE Can Piston Rings Make?

In a recent dyno test session between a $60 set of piston rings and a $600 set of piston rings, a surprising difference in engine temperature, wear and horsepower was observed when the thickness of the piston rings were changed.

Lake Speed Jr. and the guys at Shaver Specialties Racing Engines measured the impact of changing piston ring size and design, so check out the results!

The guys at Hot Rod magazine did a similar test, so here's the link to see a comparison test:

NOTE: We referenced the above video as done by Engine Masters because it was branded that way on the Motor Trend channel. However, Engine Masters did not run that test. Our apologies to David F, Steve D and Steve B.

For the results of our previous test, check out this video:
