Short VR6 & V6 turbo connecting rod H-shaft 161x20mm BAR-TEK®

High-strength steel connecting rods with H-shafts for VR6 engines

The conrods of your tuned VR6 engine have to withstand a lot if you are aiming for an extreme increase in performance. Particularly with turbocharged engines, attention must be paid to the compression ratio. Our short VR6- conrods offer you the opportunity to reduce the compression in order to avoid knocking.

Tuned engines are subject to enormous forces, which the standard connecting rods are unfortunately unable to cope with. To prevent the conrods from tearing, you should therefore use our high-strength 161 x 20 mm steel connecting rods with I-shafts for VR6 12V and V6 24V engines. Our conrods are milled from solid material, making them extremely stable and very light at the same time. This makes them the perfect connecting rod set for your tuning project!

This makes our short VR6- conrods perfect for high performance:

• High-strength milled from solid material.
• Suitable for high performance increases.
• Extremely light and very stable.
• Incl. 5/16" ARP 2000 screws.
• 6 pieces per set.
• Spacing 161 mm!
• For turbo conversions.
• Up to 800 hp.

The steel connecting rods are suitable for VW VR6 12V and V6 24V engines, are only 161 mm shorter than the 164 mm standard connecting rods and are therefore particularly suitable for turbo conversions.
