    Default Forged internals

    As many of you know the bottem end of the mzr motor is questionable on how much it can be pushed, modifications on these engines which would seem very minor on many jap engines in the past have shown the weakness of what seems to be a very capable power house.

    My question is what has lead you down the path of upgrading your internals and what combinations and problems have you found along the way?

    Have you only upgraded the weak parts or have you modified the engine in a way that it is no longer the weakest link in your mps?

    Indeed... my old MX-6 had forged internals as standard, and it only runs 8 PSI of boost and low compression... boggles the mind that Mazda would have gone back to plasticine internals on an engine making much more power with double the boost... kinda sad really...

    The MZR motor has "powder" forged internals.
    The older style turbo motors built by most companies had cheaper forged internals, not what most call "forged"

    Doesn't give much faith in the stock internals, nice post Troy

    Rod Tech

    Choosing a rod to replace your factory cheese isn't hard, make sure you choose a rod that will support what your after out of your engine and understand the different profiles available.

    A set of custom forged pistons will include many options that you may not have even known about! Compression ratios, bore size are the minor details of the piston design. If your buying a rod and piston combo take the time before to research whats available and how the options will effect your engine package.
