And you can guarantee that a set of these:

Will be way stronger, fit better, aren't worn... T16 items at the end of the day were made for a ~220hp MAX - they ran 196hp for most of the time with 0.3 bar of overboost back up to the 220hp, they're not exactly extreme performance items anyway, if the ring lands are slightly worn, then you're going to write off the new rings fast, in which case you may as well have saved yourself the cost of the lot and got proper forged items from day one.
If you're actually going to do this, there's NO point in doing a half arsed build... I mean, to look at how relatively difficult it is, look at Nialls GTi6, he supercharged it wanting low-ish power levels and he's run into numerous problems... and he did it properly... Doing it with used pistons with the wrong crank for the engine... Pointless...
