what is the most power anyone has made with eagle rods at 8.8:1comp? how much boost would you trust them to hold for?

Rods do not make power.

According to Modern they are rated roughly 350hp, so whatever it takes to make that is what I'd trust them to.

I'll let you know as soon as the Bumblebee hits the dyno with the 20g tuned at 16psi.

I'm guessing the rods are good for 400whp, if driven correctly. (max power and torque applied only in 2nd, 3rd or 4th gear)

Well there you go. I figured somebody had put alot of power through them, since they're the main aftermarket option for the 2.0.
