    pistons and rods

    Just a general question guys i have got my 93 aby head gas flowed and ported by allstage cylinder heads but before i put it back together with the block i am going to refurb the block

    now i have uprated turbo from turbo dynamics it is garret crossed with a kkk i cant remember what type it is off hand i also have rs2 injectors, intercooler, exhaust manifold i have been told i can get the car mapped to around 360bhp but my question is will i have to uprate the conrods and pistons when i refurb the block or are the standard rods and piston strong anough to cope with the added strain
    The car has only done 89000 miles im just a fussy git when comes to cars so looking for all your insight and advice

                  Cheers mate, if you got the flow results of before and after that would good as well.

                  (Not asking much am i?) I've always found better to ask around before biting the bullet.
