GasGas EC250Hi guys,
I was just looking on the THS website and the rods for the early T5's and T4's are exactly the same spec/measurements. I have a set coming for my T5 build but am swaying towards maybe going the T4 route. I have just bought a T4 for 400pounds as a run around/stop gap car, but I love it, so will prob keep it now!!!

Thanked 541 Times in 383 PostsI have just read an early 1855cc T4 lump is exactly 80% of the 2319cc of the T5. So I take it the rods are the same?

Thanked 2,466 Times in 1,996 PostsI know that they both have the same size cylinders (volume) at something like 463cc, but couldn't say if they have the same rods.

Thanked 541 Times in 383 PostsWell it looks that way! lol. Nowhere near as much info on tuning them as the T5's though, although there seems to be just as as many BIG power T4's as T5's.

Thanked 2,466 Times in 1,996 PostsAl's forged engine is good for 400bhp, i was thinking about it last year, but as i can only drive an auto it wouldn't be worth it as the box wouldn't be able to take anywhere near that much. Originally Posted by mitchyboy01
