hi all!
today i was stripping down a bone stock 12v 2e-e engine and was discussing with a friend if it might be possible to turbo a 2e engine.
i thought the rods would not be up to spec so we decided to find out what the rods were like compared to GTT and glanza.
quite spurised to say the least when i found out the following:
left to right: gen 1 GTT, glanza, 2e-e
and again, same order
why is a stock 2e rod exactly the same as a GTT rod? caps are just as thick, rod is just as thick, length is the same, everything is the same as far as i can see.
so the question is, did i miss something? were the GTT rods treated in any way? or are they really the same? and compared to the 2e rod the glanza rod is a flimsy thin rod.
