Advice on connecting rods

whats up guys, I’m in the process of building my Evo 9MR I’m gonna be running on fp green, wiseco hd1400 9:0:1 But I’m stuck on what rods to go with. I would like to do a wiseco piston rod combo with the Boostline rods but I don’t hear any reviews does anybody know if theses Boostline rods are worth it or should I go with another brand

The boost line rods are a good option. Wiseco makes quality stuff.

Could always go with a set of Eagle Rods for that setup. Buddy of mine just hit 25k miles on his 2.3, E85, FP Green setup. Car has a 64 crank, eagle Rods, and wiseco 1400HD 10.5:1 Pistons. Car makes 530/525 and hasn't skipped a beat

I would only use the Wiseco combo out of your two choices. A, the pistons are better, and B, the rods are way better. The manley Ibeams are heavy as all ****.
