Hey guys,
This is my first threat post on here although I’ve been a lurker for quite some time. I’ve seen a lot of discussion about the Rockwell hardness scale difference between the si connecting rods and the 1.5T connecting rods. I’ve been running a TSP stage 1 tune with full bolt ons on my 2019 sport hatchback for about 2,000 miles now and I’m planning on adding an e30 blend and a proper tune to the mix. Does anybody Have any definitive or even an average torque number for the limit of the stock rods? Planning to replace them anyway but it’d be nice to have even a little insight into failures in the non-si 1.5T models.

adjusted miles to actual amount
