Tuscan connecting rods are the best rods available for your European engine due to quality, custom application specific design, and thorough testing. Each Tuscan design is different from any other design because they are custom-crafted and optimized by our engineers using the latest CAD and FEA software. This is in contrast to the industry standard which simply resizes standard designs to fit new engines. Each application is vigorously tested in our in-house engine test cell. We have gone the extra mile to design specific big ends for each application, keeping the bearing in place and reducing chances of failures. This results in a connecting rod that is uniquely strong and light, for the ultimate in performance and reliability.

Designed Through Technology
Tuscan connecting rods represent the leading edge of technology for bottom end strength, reliability, and light weight. Our Engineering staff utilizes the most modern technology to optimize these rods to a level never before seen at the enthusiast level. Breaking away from the status quo, our Engineers go above and beyond by individually optimizing each connecting rod application.

Application Specific Engineering
Each model is detailed out with a unique feature set that ensures proper operation within the unique demands of that engine. There is a particular emphasis placed on providing a stable foundation for the connecting rod bearing. By providing a stable platform for the rod bearing, much higher reliability is possible. For that reason, the feature set is not consistent across all models of IE Tuscan rods.

Engineered Performance, Tested Reliability
IE Tuscan rods for turbocharged applications feature a robust I-Beam design for incredible bending and torsional stiffness. Additionally, an extensive iterative process lead to the unique Egg shape of our rod beams, which lowers stresses as much as 20% compared to less evolved designs. This shape very evenly distributes the high compression loading from a turbocharged engine onto the connecting rod beam. We then validated this success with over 18 months of field testing, powering numerous 4 cylinder VW / Audi engines with over 1000 bhp!
In addition to being tough, IE Tuscan rods are also designed to minimize unnecessary weight on the connecting rod for an ultra balanced weight to strength ratio. Our engineering staff has spent countless hours trimming the fat- leaving exactly what is needed to get the reliability you want, with the weight you don't.

Finished And Quality Controlled In USA
This level of attention to detail is mirrored in the manufacturing details as well. Each set of Tuscan connecting rods are honed in the USA to tolerances of around 250 millionths of an inch! This ensures amazing bearing reliability you really cannot find elsewhere in this price range. These rods are as round and true as any rods money can buy.

Standard Rifle Drilling
To keep wrist pin wear at the minimum, all of our Tuscan I Beam forged rods are outfitted with standard rifle drilling. Rifle drilling forces pressurized oil through a small orifice placed vertically through the rod and further lubricates the pin and bushing. This extra oiling causes less wear and friction between the rod and piston and increasing the life of the internals.

This works
Wow!! I am shocked at how good this works. In addition to the fact that it works, it is Packaged with novice people in mind to get maximum results. This was worthy of before and after pictures; but, starting tge project, honestly didn't think it would result in the way it did.

Excellent results
I have an older truck with badly oxidized headlights. I saw this product advertised and decided to give it a try. It was amazing how easy it was to do. 3 step process and the most remarkable results! I had a question regarding the process, called the number on the QR code and spoke to a person! OhJoy! More than helpful, put a whole new meaning to "service after the sale"I highly recommend this product and this company!

Not quite what I expected
Great price but the results, though they did improve the clarity, it was not the full results I HAD EXPECTED.. The foiled packages that had the oxidizer removal and ceramic clear coat were nearly dry when I opened them. They should be made more wet when sealed and possibly better foil paqckaging.

Ruined my headlights! Big waste of money!
I decided to try this instead of soda bicarbonate and toothpaste to see if if would be oxidation cleared for longer. Big mistake, it made my headlights completely hazed making it even worst. Don’t waste your money on this or anything else. Soda bicarbonate and toothpaste is better and you can seal it with a lacquer or sealer. Big waste of money. Hopeflly I can fix them…😡
