Anyone Running Pauter Titanium Rods?
Doubt it, but still curious. Kinda hefty price at $597 per rod, but 33% lighter than their chrome molly billet rods! Their site says in a six cylinder, using their titanium rods has the equivalent reciprocating mass as removing two steel rods!

No, but Im considering using the IMPO's Formula Monza Italian made titanium rods. Right now Italy has some of the best forgeries on the planet. Most gear companies will use an Italian made product due to the quality of the metal found there.

We are currently getting ready to install them into one of our shop car. They are supposed to be rated at 1000HP. We are going to be pushing 40psi to them. I will let you know how they turn out.

Titanium and aluminum rods would be much to scary in a daily driver(titanium loves to gall/ alluminum loves to stretch).... I would love to build a track only car with them however.

Aluminum can work if you allow the temps to normalize before you drive the car. Just let the car warm up first. I have seen one guy run them on the street in a v8 and have also seen them in roundy rounds. There is one circle track car they had been using the same al. rods for 2 years!!! thats round and circles at 8k sustained for 30 minutes at a time x 2 years!! This was in a 4 cylinder push rod motor at that!!
