HDI ones were made later on so the technology that forged them would of been better not to mention they're actually alot chunkier up around the wrist of the rod Smile That and the only people that have broke hdi rods are the people chasing 200bhp+

Have to correct you here, I broke a rod on a hdi at 90bhp.

Can happen to any engine in any state of tune, the joys of a mechanical system.
