I have not posted in a while so let me say a little about my car. It is a 1995 M3. Presently it has Scrick Cams, Headwork, Exhaust system and an ERT Supercharger and other mods. The car now makes about 340 HP at the wheels. Yes, I crave more power. I have recently bought a 1997 3.2L M3 engine and Pete McHenry is building it for me. The new motor is going to have low compression pistons (8.5:1) and stronger rods amount other internal stuff. Here is where you guys can pitch in and help. As much as I value Pete's word, he does not want to use the "standard" stuff ( i.e. JE Pistons and Pauter Rods). He says that JE's quality recently went down due to a merger with Wiesco and then a buyout by Delaware Elevator Company. He also add that Pauter (I-Beam) rods, due to there I-Beam design are marginally better then the stock BMW rods (H-Beam). He says by design, I-Beam rods are more prone to "twisting" under extreme (Supercharger, Turbo) conditions. He recommends custom built pistons by some race shop (forget the name), he swears by them. He also recommends BMW Diesel (H-Beam) rods. He says the Diesel rods are much stronger then the Pauter rods but also heavier, even heavier then the stock M3 rods. He made a comment as to how the diesel rods are designed to take extreme pressures all the time (a diesel has 25:1 comp ration). His comment is you can choose strength or weight saving and since this is a "street car" strength add reliability and longevity while robbing some HP. What is everyone's take on this? I kind of agree on the I-Beam vs. H-Beam thing. I have checked the internet and found that Crower (affordable) and Carrillo (expensive but the best) make some great H-Beam rods. I will ask him about these. Has anyone that used the Pauter rods or recent JE Pistons have any problem? Please comment as this project is taking shape very fast. Has anyone used any other piston or rods that I need to look at or has a comment about? Once the motor is built it will be getting another supercharger, and "roots type" true blower this time, making 14 PSI.
