I just want it to handle up to 600 hp or like 500-550 whp
But something cheap because I have to get it Shipped to Iceland And for exampe if something Costs 2000 dollars in America then I have to pay like 4300 dollars when it arrives here becaus of very high taxes and shipping costs
And I?m maybe thinking while I?m doing that maybe I should upgrade to a single turbo becaus I don?t trust the Twins to handle that much boost
I would really be thankful if you would direct me to someone who sells good products but for a fair price

How did the piston get destroyed? Oem pistons can old 24psi and 550hp easy...even 30psi and 800+rwhp is no problem...but
not on pump gas. The most expensive pistons you can get (JUN/Cosworth) won't hold 24psi on pump gas either, because at that boost level & octane you're not burning the fuel, you're DETONATING it. If it's only the piston that's destroyed, put a new oem piston in there (Toyota should quote you a fair price), run race fuel, and you're done.
P.S. I hope your cylinder wall isn't damaged too...
