custom crower made for Endyn ... almost as light as titaniums but without the galling factor.
eagle rods on customers cars and some of my street engines.

i have eagle rods w/arp bolts and cp pistons in my setup. should be running this weekend. i do know that the cp pistons seem to have thicker ring lands then my old je's that i melted and the gas ports are lower down on the piston.

It depends on how crazy the setup needs to be. For most street cars, I try and use balanced and/or cryotreated OEM Honda stuff. For everything else, I'm loyal to CP pistons, but I've never been loyal to a rod manufacturer.

I have RLZ Wiseco pistons and +.137" Eagle rods in my GSR motor.
I also have B16 pistons and LS rods in my LS/VTEC motor.
