some where around 720. but this is higher than for a N/A car as i want to lower the compression and get reinforced toped pistons

They are 580 but then there is a charge for changing the compression and for reinforced tops

Most aftermarket piston makers will do custom pistons and rods. They usually cost a bit more and take a bit longer. How is your c20t progress?
