Check the bore lower, that is above the rings, and should be fine, need to check just below that, half way down, and at the bottom of the piston stroke. You may find a taper, and that means maybe you can just hone, but most likely you bore it.

Looks like your off to a great start. If you really are going with a bigger turbo, and you have the engine appart, IMHO it is foolish not to go to the added expense of H beam rods. I'm a photo geek, and some times they help to make my point.
From my first build, OEM rods that had all stress risers removed, shot peened, cryo treated and balanced. The pistons are Ross Racing, ceramic tops with anodized skirts.
stuff happens on any tune...30K later and one big detonation...

I agree, i talked to lucky about it, and he says the stock rods and pistons is enough for the 19T with a good tune, so i will do it that way. Nice picture of our piston on the engine block.

Thanks Matt, yeah for sure Lucky will do a nice job, i have been runing BSR stage 3 for 8 years and i didnt have any problems, but the only thing that i didnt like is that the tune is for 95 oct, my local gas is crap, so for sure making a live tuning will help a lot with my local gas.
I have been thinking for 1 week about oem pistons vs aftermarket, this car is my daily drive, i dont race, 1/4, sometimes i have fun with the car lol, but im not expecting a rocket, with the 16T and BSR the car is really fast, if i find a 19T with a good price and condition i will go for it.
wow, any idea of what happen?

Hope I'm not imposing too much on this thread, only trying to properly answer the question. You may have to call them, I sent them an OEM piston, told them I wanted a forged billet, and the coatings, and that's what they delivered.
The photo above is after 30K, I should have clarified that it ran for 30K with the bent rod, I wasn't even aware it was bent, and was in the process of investigating my oil consumption, and this happened...
One more shot of the piston condition...
