Default Who's rods are the best for the money?

Want to go turbo for XMAS and need to buy rods for my B16a CRX. I currently have JE SRP 10.5-1 pistons. (is this ok for turbo?).

Lots of Eagle H-Beams on EBAY for $330 but have heard Crower is the best. Please tell me your experience.

Thanks!

the crowers are good but the Eagles are good enough for like 90% of peoples applications. if you are planning to do like 600+ hp, I'd go with another brand like cunningham or carillo but for daily driven setups. The eagle is good enough.

if you need egale rods, let me know, got them in stock for the b16

As far as the compression, it depends on how much boost you're running. Personally I wouldnt run boost on 10.5:1 c.r. but you could probably run 6-8 psi. Again, Im not sure. Just do a search on it.
