These \"drop-in\" rods are engineered to work with stock 19mm pistons without requiring their replacement, simplifying installation. They are forged from a two-piece 4340 chrome moly steel and feature an upgraded H-beam design for significantly enhanced strength and durability over factory components.\n\nEach rod set is computer-optimized for unique VW\/Audi engine applications and balanced to within +\/- 1 gram. They are honed in-house to precise tolerances, ensuring proper bearing operation. An optional \"rifle drilling\" (forced pin oiling) is available to increase wrist pin longevity through enhanced lubrication, which is highly recommended for street-driven vehicles with higher mileage. The rods are dimensionally and magnaflux inspected for extreme reliability and feature multi-stage heat treatment for dimensional stability and fatigue life.\n\nIncluded with each set are genuine IE Spec ARP 2000 rod bolts, stamped with the \"IE\" logo. Detailed torque specifications and instructions for using a stretch gauge or torque wrench are provided to ensure correct installation. Installation requires careful attention, and it's recommended to seek professional help for both installation and tuning.
