    The rods don't bend because they are weak, they are bending because there is either a fault or you are asking them to cope with forces they were not intended for.
    Is rods in unmodified cars are bending, it HAS to be some other fault otherwise all stock engines would be blowing, not just a very small percentage.
    Forged rods will just hide whatever this fault is.
    Waste gate hose fell off mine... 50psi... not so good for flywheel or rods....

    If you have a standard turbo 50psi would have been hot air, wouldnt have pushed much torque on the rods ( if it was a aftermarket turbo zoom zoom boom)

    Hot air and to much of it will cause detonation at a time that places extreme force in the wrong direction on conrods.
