Message	[ http://www.pauter.com/ ] I believe the price was like ~$900 Per Rod. The weight savings are about 200grams per rod, (and these are pauter, they are a bit heavier than stock, I think Eagle offers rods in Titanium as well) The gains will be a faster revving, faster deceleration. You will have a higher rpm limit, With the turbos you picked (specially with some 2.5" IC piping) You will build boost/power all the way up to 8k rpm or more. I have always wondered why a Skyline has an RPM limit of like 10k rpm, I saw some vids the other day and I dont understand why a straight 6 can rev higher, I would "think" that a v6 would be able to handle it more safely. NO, This picture is not photoshopped. It took many times to take this picture. Setting up the timer, shutter speed etc, then jumping on my bike and getting the tire to spin.
