Just bought these rods, they appear to be in good condition, yet to have them crack tested. But just want to confirm these are B6 turbo rods before I go any futher... Thanks



There 12.94mm thick

Piston end is: OD 32.31mm

3/4 of the way up is a marking '4 'and '3' on others, the width there is:32.84mm

look pretty similar to me....

pay close attention to how the rod starts thick and ends skinny unline the stock ones.... (hope that makes sense)

MX5 Rods on the Left
ANd B6T Rods on the Right
