Obviously increasing power,torque and boost puts you at risk of bending the con rods my question is what is the single cause of bending rods is it too much low down power,torque or boost.alot of threads I've read with people asking the question, the answer seems to be I don't use WOT until 3500 rpm that's not really any help to me as I will be using WOT in first and second gear from a standing start and only use one gear for racing.
