-Please don't be an arseclown, this aint Z ilvia ya know.

Arias has some 10.7 & 10.8 compression ratio pistons for the E motor. Your stock connecting rods should be fine for an NA application...couldn't hurt to get em shot peened. I'm not going to whine to you about searching, I realise that you did, so did I and did not find a lot on this forum. The KA E motor is fairly common in road race applications so you may want to look in that directionhttp://www.race-cars.com/engsa...s.htm

Yeah and listen to luigi blow money on shot peening forged rods cause you really need to. Keep your same rods unless they are bent, have them resized and dont blow your money on the stupid **** these people say on here.

Stock KA rods come Shotpeened from the factory and will be perfectly good for an NA application, unless they are damaged in some way.
