Default double shot-peened rods??

anybody use these on there car, how strong are they? I'm looking at buying an h23 with forged pistons and double shot penned rods. I plan on putting my turbo from my f22 to the h23, was wondering on how strong this bottom end is? thanks Ray

I shot peened the rods on my 22r toy truck motor (once) and they seem to go past 7000 rpm with an 89mm stroke. Seems like a good way to stress relieve the surface of a rod.

DOUBLE shot peened? Why double. I think if a company tries to tell u double is better then single is BS. IF they are good they shouldnt need to "double" it. Get it right the first time.

Of course if double shot peening means something else just ignore what i said
