I like the map howard rods

if you get howard rods directly from howard they are like 500 bucks for the set

if you search around you can prob get even a better deal


btw those weiseco rods remind me of extremetuner rods

Sorry for bringing up this old thread but I finally have an update.

After getting some money built up I finally got the new rods and pistons into the motor. We ended up having to put a new crank and I had spun a bearing and the crank could not be saved. Car is a 2.0L setup on Cosworth M3's, Ferrea valve train, beehives, Wiseco 9.5 asymmetrical pistons, the Boostline Rods. running a FF BB PTE 6262 with full 3 in piping into a Boomba Throttle Body and AMS intake manifold and FIC 2150s. Backed up by a Haltech Elite 2000.

Downfall is still stock 6 speed MR tranny and tcase. Only saving grace is I just rolled 26k on the odometer.

Just finished my break in miles and the rods have not snapped so all in good.

Oh and I still have A/C that blows ice cold... while driving lol the half radiator and half condenser with my tiny fan doesn't like in town driving with a.c if its too warm out.

Wish these rods were lighter. The price isn't bad but there's plenty of equally stronger options that weigh significantly less

I’m glad you finally got it together. I started reading and saw no post from you in a while and thought you may have had to sell the car. ����

Thank you! At times I have wanted to sell but I haven't been able to bring myself to it. I do need to start 5 speed shopping though. Motor is far far exceeding the 6 speed. Keeping boost at 30 pounds for now but hearing a whine in 3-6.
