Sell the ctr's and spend a little extra on some JE's or something similer. Never know what you might want to do in the future....

Since you already got the beefy rods, you might as well get some forged pistons. If not sell your eagle rods and buy a set of used B16a rods.

ya had the same problem no way to really make it work with the ctr's better off getting a set of weisco's pretty cheap and very strong same guys that make pistons for endyne so you know they are good. unless you wanna got back to stock rods I would think you would have more of a problem burning the pistions with n20 then you would breaking rods.
