		poor design and poor manufacturing tolerances, as Stef said, go for the ones that proper reputable race/rally engine builders use. 
 
you'll pay 550-600 for good rods. 
 
also, std rods are good in n-a builds for over 200 bhp at sensible rpm.

		Wasn't that DP engineering build running over 400hp on stock internals with just a decomp plate? 
EDIT: found it, maybe it's got something to do with it running on E85?  http://www.dp-engineering.nl/projects/p-...2871r.html

		E85 will add a fair chunk to the gains especially with boost. 
  
added - what a horrible shape to the power curve!   that would be barely any quicker till 4.5k then a world of wheelspin and gearbox destructioN!"

		Granted it's not a great curve, but it's a track car and it's hardly going to spend much time under 4k on track.

Much better thank you.    i will speak too the engine builder and find out exactly what rods he will be using.

Has anyone ever told you that your really ugly and have a fleet of shit cars coupled with an incredibly shite trolling / banter ability? If you answer that question with a No then i will be greatly surprised because its pretty accurate.
