An un-calibrated torque wrench can lead to under\/over torque and rod bolt failure. Torque each rod bolt to a final torque of 26 ft\/lbs. We recommend torquing the bolt, breaking it loose, and re-torquing it three times per bolt. This ensures proper rod bolt stretch and that the rod cap is fully seated. Do not exceed 26 ft\/lbs. This torque spec is based on the included ARP assembly lubricant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTECHNICAL DETAILS\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConnecting rods are some of the highest stressed components in an engine and thus require extreme attention to detail to ensure proper operation and reliability.  Integrated Engineering ensures the success of your next engine build by putting each set of connecting rods through a rigorous quality control process. For years, Integrated Engineering H-beam Rods have been integral to delivering the power that the highest-powered turbo setups and race engine demand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExtra attention has been paid to even the smallest details, such as the bearing tangs, wrist pin fit, and big end side clearance, providing a level of fit and finish not found anywhere else. Each and every set is finished, machined, and honed in-house for perfectly round big-end bores, resulting in the industry's lowest failure rates. All rods in this series feature generous wrist pin oiling for long-life operation.  One of the hallmarks of a high-quality connecting rod is its strength-to-weight ratio. Our optimized H beam design is utilized and validated using modern CAD drafting and FEA analysis techniques to create this balance of strength and lightweight. These techniques ensure the rod is as light and strong as possible, perfect for today's powerful and high rpm European applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCONNECTING ROD FITMENT\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudi - S4 1996-2001 (B5 - B5.5) 2.7T 30V V6 engines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudi - A4 1996-2001 (B5 - B5.5) 2.8L 30V V6 engines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudi - A6 1998-2004 (C5) 2.8L 30V V6 \u0026amp; 2.7T  30V V6 engines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudi - A6 Allroad 1998-2004 (C5)  2.8L 30V V6 \u0026amp; 2.7T 30V V6 engines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudi - A8 1994-2002 (D2)  2.8L 30V V6 engines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVW - Passat 1998-2005 (B5 - B5.5)  2.8L 30V V6 engines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003e*Not compatible with Audi B5 RS4 2.7T engines \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Integrated Engineering","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43046726565949,"sku":"IERHVD1","price":808.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/5024\/files\/ie_rods_154x21_audi-27t_1.jpg?v=1773772808","url":"https:\/\/www.euromotiv.com\/fr\/products\/ie-rods-145x21-audi-27t","provider":"Euromotiv","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
