@ danishmkvgti
sh*t the bed, imagine seeing that bad boy come out your engine, you must have sh!t a brick :scared:
how would you know if you had bent something like a rod. obviously if it wa sproper bent you'd here the engine going apesh*t, but what about a sdlight kink in the rod like danGBs rod.
are S3 rods and pistons a straight fit into a BWA engine?, or are you taalking piston rings, seals bearings and more?

I would say so, 82.5MM bore in all of the 2.0T FSI motors so dont see any reason why not..
I have a set of 4 rods and 3 pistons from my S3.. All you would need is a piston and you have a full set if your interested?

are the S3 pistons capable of supporting a GT2871 or anything bigger. ive made the decision to upgrade to a k04 sized willy, so should i feel its not upto the task anymore and want to go BT, will they cope or would they need uprating again?
would that mean i have changed the compression ratio to from the BWA to that of the S3? what could the benefits be apart from piece of mind

i'm no expert, so jonny and others may be better at helping you, but on your engine you can get app. 390hk with apr stage 3 bt, BUT torque is the same as the K04. Its torque that kills the rods not hp. If i should go BT/above K04, and i don't says the missys that drives it daily, i would deffo get other rods and also pistons as i would want the torque over hp.
