100% agree here, have the same engine and it's a great driver with no problems or idle troubles.

I will disagree that the extra eyebrow relief pistons being absolutely terrible for a low compression driver. Definitely not optimal and no good reason to go with them but if they are installed, no reason to tear the engine apart to replace them on a driver like this (I have a similar engine with them and no troubles there either).
