Finally!!!! After years of begging and shopping the notion around, we where able to close the deal on getting more cost effective connecting rods coming to the market. In a few weeks, you fellas can expect to see them on our site. These will be an H-Beam design made by a Carrillo company. So this should be interesting.

[speedfoos]

OOOO!!!


Can you give a ballpark on the price Paul? Within $75-100 is fine with me. That will help me make the determination to go with Y8 internals or stick with the D17s.

For boost or NA? Or does it matter?

Fantastic stuff. Between these and the LSD you guys are pursuing, I couldn't be a happier Honda owner!

carillo makes stout rods. i actually used to know the owner. i did the windows at their san clemente office for about 5 years.

For boost, and they will run around $400-475 for the set of 4!!!!!

That is atleast $200 cheaper than Crower.

Holy circus midgets, Batman! That's actually reasonable!

Will the block have to be notched like we have to with the Crowers?

[Yaj00003]

Which will still be better Crower or Carrillo ?

[ronaldo9]

This is great finally d17 parts prices are coming down.

[sql_civic]

Alright.

Now I'll need custom pistons instead of custom rods.

No need for either. Crower makes rods, and Wiseco makes pistons:

I know, right.

These should be almost as good, if not better.

More than likely.

[trurace]

Hey Paul, which would be better for me.

Stg 2 cam and standalone (aem or kpro)
or
pistons/rods and up the psi but stay with the pcs

well, we need to get custom pistons if we're going na, somebody needs to come out with some high compression pistons.

[TRIZ]

You knew this question was coming from me...

Can we use these on NA and see results like the crower rods, and if not- why?

what are your horsepower goals for N/A ? I cant forsee a N/A D17 needing these. Unless you just want teh extra security.

[TRIZ]

Well, goal is in the ballpark of 160 for now.

For power reasons, might not need them, but once the specs get put up, would be nice to run some lighter rods if they are.

Question- can we run aftermarket pistons on our stock rods- any issues there?
