As title says.

My belief is
BA xr6 turbo rods were sh*t
BA MKii got the LPG rods
BF >06/06 got the f6 rods.

Someone is telling me that all xr6 <06/06 have the EXACT same rods including NA. LPG and >06/06 xr6 for the f6 rods

Someone want to clear this up for me please :)

If that's the case I can buy a LPG motor cheap, use the bottom end and have 400KW instead of limited to 300 on my MKii?

Yeah, seems I'm wrong. LPG are the same thickness as f6 but no floating gudgeon pins. They're pressed apparently.

I always though BAmkii had LPG rods and f6 got thicker again.

This comes up more often than my doodle

You cant just whack a cheap LPG engine with a turbo setup, and expect 11ty billion kw because apparently they have strong rods. LPG have a much higher compression ratio as has already been confirmed by mick.
