There very good. What i think he means is the standard Rods are the main weak point in these engine's when going for higher power and torque.

Eagle are well known and very good.

The V4 Sti crank Will be fine for it. They have been used in engine's running 5- 600 Bhp. Just get it checked over and cleaned and the crank be fine.

Have a look on here for lateral performance. . there Really good and will have most the part's you need (gasket set's,ARP head bolts etc etc) hope this help's a little
