    @All: For an engine under 450 BHP/550Nm I'd stick with standard rods/pistons, afterwards stock pistons are still good but will need machining to drop compression a bit. For rods I know for sure that the stock ones as "just a little weak" at 600 Nm (meaning they don't always fail) so I'll try some rods that are cheap but a little more than "just a little" stronger than stock rods, which should be fine. For what it's worth, Lehmann uses stock rods for 700 HP 20vt engines so he can't be that stupid.... but where MTM will use 2 Bar and 20 degree of advance, Lehmann will only use 1.3 Bar and 45 degree of advance so that may surely help

      Speak to MRC about their 1.9 bar high boost chips
      1.9 bar

      My car has now 1.4 / 1.5 bar, that will be nice to drive with 1.9 bar.

      Where i can get those chips?
      And must i do something else on my car? Bigger injectors or bigger feulpump etc.

      I have allready a Wagner EM and IC , maybe a new fresh RS2 turbo then with those 1.9 bar chips.
      My turbo smokes a little bit and is 280K old.

        Yep, Mihnea is a tuner, one that is pretty well versed in the secrets of the Motronic ECU.
