I thought Vitaras pistons are for forced induction. If that's right, why use these longer than normal rods to induce higher compression?

 

Since the vitaras are not made for the d16 motor the wrist pin location sits the piston into the cylinder bore slightly with standard length rods. The compression is in the 7's with standard rods and in the 8's depending on the motor set-up with the longer rods. You can get almost 9:1 with the right motor set-up with the these rods.


Also:
"Even though the setups have worked like this(using std length rods),
this is not completely ideal because the combustion is happening
not at the right place and there are compression ratios issues
(very low CR). So we have designed a custom I beam rod with a
custom length to solve this issue. Using this rod the Vitara piston
will sit right at deck height providing more Compression(one full point
on D16 engines) and making the combustion happen where it has to be."


If your wondering why high compression with turbo's then do some searching around.

do you need to notch the block to use these rods?

 

Yes, but there sold. If your interested check out www.p2p0.com
