ZRP RODS – CONNECTING ROD SET VW / AUDI 2.0L TFSI / TSI EA888 HD-SERIES

The Subaru 2.0L E20 / 2.5L EJ25 H-beam connecting rods are made from high-strength 4340 steel and are designed for high performance and extreme durability. The pin end is also “ribbed” to minimize distortion under heavy inertial loads while also saving any excess weight. The bushings are made from AMPCO 18 material for excellent wear and fatigue resistance and have a radial groove that serves as an oil reservoir. They are shot peened to relieve stress from the material and multi-stage heat treated to increase rigidity. Tight manufacturing tolerances ensure a perfect fit while optimizing oil clearances. Bending and torsion are strictly controlled. Each connecting rod includes ARP 2000 cap fasteners rated at 220,000 psi, with optional ARP L19 260,000 psi material available as an upgrade, and the entire kit comes with ARP moly and complete installation instructions.
