upgraded pistons for the 5.0, anyone?

I happened across this eBay listing for upgraded pistons for the VK50DE. Although not specifically mentioned, I'm assuming that these are probably forged. Custom compression ratios available, too.

Maybe we'll start seeing some true 5.0 engine performance parts hitting the market soon. It'd be freaking awesome to see a supercharger kit come around.

I wouldn't hold your breath, the fact that this engine only came in the FX, and it was discontinued early on, and there has been no parts for it thusfar, points to the fact that there will likely never be very much support for this engine.

Even the old 4.5 in the FX45's and M45's received no love. Couple people tried to work some stuff out for them, but eventually it all stalled, and people who wanted the V8 either made the jump and swapped the VK56, or moved down to the 3.5 and used the plethora of mods available on the 350z and G35 platform.

^ I agree, no one is going to experiment on this since they have 5 customers willing to spend money on that haha
