Yea mid 700s should be max. I've seen a guy mention on here about him upgrading the rod bolts to 625+. But not sure what power level he was at.

I wouldn't say 750whp on a 1.8L rod to be junk. It's an economy rod and priced accordingly.

Ive made 750whp for over 2 years with Eagle LS rods and arp2000 bolts. Not a single issue. And my buddy made 850-900AWHP through an auto in his dsm a few years back with an off the shelf set of Eagles and he never had any rod issues. They are a good economy rod. Watching His DSM on the dyno though was a bit scary lol.

My old motor made 915whp and trapped 165-166mph. The rod finally let go after a season. When I sold the motor, it had over 40k miles on it making between 550-720whp. My new motor has Eagle rods too, but Im only making 580-600whp.
