Awesome, you guys switching to turbos are just making it easier for me to stay at the front of the pack. As for the DR thing, madman wants me to try them as well. He says he can get it to hook regardless of the power I throw at it, and it will be faster with a DR than with a slick. We'll see......
Keep the pics coming

Do you have any links or articles that support this? Its been common practice to inspect aluminum rods mid season and replace if needed. But definitely replace at the end of the season, especially with FI. Do companies now recommend their aluminum rods for street use?

BME is a forged rod as opposed to billet. From what I have read, they forge the rod to align the grain which makes the material stronger. By no means will this rod last as long as a steel rod but it does give me some safety for my tune because the rod will take some of the cusion of detination.
The real reason for using this rod in my case is I got a good deal on them and have never used them before. I plan on changing them out the end of next year. Thanks
