Fwd: Re: 90cq to 20v turbo???

[JShadzi at aol.com]

Yes, 7A and 3B rods often bend at very high hp levels.  I belive Sprongle's car is putting down close to 400hp, and in race conditions any stock Audi rods would be very inadequate for consistent reliability.

I made this comment because I read about how  Four Star Racing (Frank
Sprongl's shop in Canada) had converted a 7A engine to a turbo. That
engine ended up toasting its connecting rods. I don't know how much HP
this engine was running.
