ARP High Performance Connecting Rod Bolts – VW / Audi 2.0 TFSI / TSI M9

With 2.0 TFSI / TSI engines, the strength of the internal fasteners is critical, especially when the engine operates at higher pressure, greater load, and increased power. This is where ARP High Performance connecting rod bolts are the right choice.

These bolts are made from seamless and defect-free 8740 chrome-moly steel, which makes them extremely strong and resistant to stress. Each ARP connecting rod bolt undergoes heat treatment before grinding and thread rolling are performed, and the large radius under the head further increases strength.

All bolts are guaranteed to be magnetic particle inspected, and in terms of strength, they are almost five times more resistant than standard OEM bolts.

Key advantages:

• Suitable for VW / Audi 2.0 TFSI / TSI M9
• Made from 8740 chrome-moly steel
• Seamless and defect-free material
• Heat treated for maximum strength
• Rolled thread for higher resistance
• Large radius under the head for additional strength
• Undergone magnetic particle inspection
• Almost 5 times stronger than OEM bolts

Suitable for:

• standard replacement with increased reliability
• engine overhaul
• tuned engines
• high-revving and highly stressed applications
• track, drag, marine, and racing engines

Why this upgrade matters?

With increased power and higher cylinder pressures, standard connecting rod bolts often become a weak link. With ARP, you get significantly greater security and peace of mind that the bottom end of the engine is properly prepared.
