difference between low and standard tensions pistons rings

[ProjectoStang]

I will be ordering pistons rings, but I wanted to know the difference between low and standard tensions. What is better for boosted applications?

Don't know how much help this is, but I know alot of drag race cars in the NMRA use low tension rings, I don't think they last as long as standard. Someone else can probably give you better info, but I thought I'd bring this to the top for you since I had a similar question.

I gotta say about the same. I don't think you want those low tension rings in a street car. I think I saw a thread about this very thing over at hardcore not too long ago.
