There was a 1.8GTX sold overseas during 90-94 and the rods inside that motor are exactly the same as the BP but the compression is 8.2:1 on the pistons. I have that motor in my car.

The GTR rods are good to 500hp and this is what I will run in my built setup.

In the pictures below, the BP/1.8 rods are on the left, GTR rods in the middle, and Carillo A beam rods on the right.

doesn't sound like they know what they are doing at all.

on a sidenote, the GTR rods can take somewhere around 400whp safely.
