OldNathan Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 So what exactly is wrong with stock 7A rods? Seems to be scaremongering but not actually heard of anything wrong with the stock items in NA or STD boost applications. So funny you say this. My mate who I was talking about earlier was told the same thing over and over so did a lot of research. Never found any broken ones. So hes running stock ones in his rally car to see how they go. 270hp 387NM 7500RPM. Havent broken yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpr Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 lower rpm limit is key^ shit isn't gonna fly apart just because you throw some boost at it. 7a is cool. but 4a plus an extra 1000rpm for effectively same power band, has more cheesy grin factor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seedy Al Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 yeah they seem to like around 7500. My 7age was limited there, and alothough it felt like you really wanted more, it was jus btter to be safe. Its all about the Torque baby 7a rds and ARP rod bolts would be Key for what everyone calls a Cheap build Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
