    I am in the process of looking to build up a new engine and simply put nothing but Endyn will grace the internals where ever possable.

    I'm very pleased with my Arias pistons and Saenz rods. Both were a custom setup for the car, and both companies did an excellent job. The rods are an H-beam style, are light weight, and despite the abuse I put them through, they hold out.

    Do your research, talk with the companies, and whoever talks the best talk or gives you the best deal, or treats you the best, (as long as you dont hear any bad things about them), I say go with your gut instinct. These guys here will tell you what they've used, and what kind of customer service they recieved, and take that into consideration also. Good luck!

    Talking

    I would go with Endyne's Roller Wave pistons. As far as Rods are concerned there are a lot of good choices out there, I would look at AEM, Crower, and Endyn. When looking at them compare price and weight. I know Endyne points out design features that they feel make their rods much stronger than anyone elses out there. But there are 2 questions to ask yourself, when was the last time you heard of someone breaking a Crower Rod (esp. on a street vehicle) and how much more does the Endyne weigh?
