      Set is the same for S2 and UrS6. Means you take 2 sets.

        What is the price for FCP stroker rods? I would need a kit of 5 in 155x22 size. I'll guess these would be a custom size..? Or they also could be 156x22 size.

                  Rods are made in china (the same as Manley, Scat, K1, ZRP, Integrated, Eurospec) by FCP Engineering UAB request, our drawings our dimensions, arp bolts directly bought from ARP USA.
                  All rods will come with invoice from our company, not privat sell. We have got super power results from customer cars, 4cyl 800-1000hp, 5cyl 1000hp, 6cyl 1200-1400hp.

                  Europe and USA made rods absolutly different price minimum double Pauter, Carillo, Arrow and etc.

                  Member Wizard-of-OD always was one of our hatters i dont know why. And he didnt need any rods.

                    You do know why.
                    You have not been forth coming with your company/information.
                    FCP-Engineering:
                    - Did not design these connecting rods. These rods were designed by others and the factory is making them available to everyone else.
                    - Is not an Authorized ARP distributor (according to ARP)

                    I am not a hater , I have asked you in the past for transparency and you refuse to divulge this. All you keep saying is your connecting rod is same as "X Y Z " company so realistically what you are telling the community is that you are a copy cat who found a company on Alibaba that would sell you "proprietary" information.

                    Produce FEA data for your designs (YOUR DESIGNS) and an ARP account # and I will leave you alone.
                    Until then I will always advocate to the community that an engine rebuild costs in the neighborhood of 4000+Euro , you really going to skimp out on components to save 100 Euro as well as support an company that does not give back to the community?

                    P.S. Thank Pauter for that X-beam design.

                      Don't bash on somebody without knowing His product. We have Here alot of Cars Running FCP rods without Problems. From 450 to 1000hp. It doesn't Bother me wehre he has his rods, the only Thing that Counts is that they are good machined and the can take the power that is clamed By FCP. For me he could bought it from The Moon, The finished product is what it Counts. If Products from China are a no go for You, i can call Pankle an get You a set for 700€ a Peace, i'm sure they will satisfy you...

                          Stop....just stop and use some common sense. I don't care where the product is made , I care about the ******** being sold to the community. I know his product.

                          DMF has guys on here making 800+ hp on his connecting rods. It means nothing at the end of the day. FCP Produce what I asked for and I will leave this alone.

                              Post #20 , 4 years ago I asked you for this data , you still didn't produce it. Now you are jumping from H/I beam to X-beam


                              I am not trying to give you a hard time. I am simply looking for transparency. I don't have a leg in this race.

                                If it is so, you should stay out of this Thread. It is Group Buy Thread and Not a Thread about the transparency of a Company.
