Re:Forged rods and pistons
 

Thank you. By the way, which is better...the I-beam or the
H-beam rod? I'll be boosting between 12-15 PSI ;).

Re:Forged rods and pistons
 

it would take you a year and a day with a tiny ass dremel. use a die grinder or something like that. And you could probably run stock internals at 15psi, so the rods are up to you

Re:Forged rods and pistons
 

for 15 psi, just run stock internals, they'll last for a while, in the mean time save the money until you need them, don't fix it if it ain't broke ;)

Re:Forged rods and pistons
 

15psi on stock d internals?
never, well maybe for a week

Re:Forged rods and pistons
 

i bet it would last quite a while with good tuning. i ran 13psi for months on a shitty smc500 and 450s. Im not saying its the smartest thing to do, but i think it would work

Re:Forged rods and pistons
 

ummmmm, ok, maybe not a d15. a z6 will handle it for a while with good tuning.

The rings in cylinder number one broke last week Saturday when I was on a dyno.

Re:Forged rods and pistons
