Default full race/manley turbo tuff rods



i was wondering who all runs them? i tried doing a search and it seems like everyone who bought them is selling them even before they put them to use, im thinking that should tell me something, but i just wanted to put the question out there.

I am using full race/manley for my B16. Sold my Eagles for these . Maybe you should ask the guys that you see selling them.

I think the manley rods are a little over kill. Unless your making a track car that is going to have over 500whp; I think a set of Eagles would do the job just fine. Maybe even a set of OEM rods with the proper machining would work well.

do you *really* want to risk those expensive pistons, nice crank, nice block, nice head, nice turbo all becuase you wanted to use oem rods???

If a rod breaks you will lose:

head
block
piston (s)
valves

possibly lose:
cams
turbo
etc

not worth it

Exactly. I run these rods and have absolutely no worries.

he also said eagle rods, so i think hes got a point. but the full race/manley rods are really nice for the HIGHER HP, peace of mind, bragging rights

I got them and not one problem. The way I see it is spend the money and never have to worry about rod failure.
