Honing

All big and small end bores are honed in house on precision equipment to exacting tolerances.

Quality Control

All coecting rods are put through a stringent quality control process including measuring all critical dimensions on our state of the art CMM (coordinate measuring machine). All coecting rods are matched in weights +/- 1 gram.

ARP Bolts

All CTS Turbo coecting rods come standard with genuine ARP 2000 rod bolts.
