Hdi rods can let go at standard power or hold for 200bhp, zx was running 230'ish bhp on hdi rods, one did bend tho. If you want reliable the only way to go is forged rods tbh.

I ran hdi 16v rods which bent, others have had them come out the block at sub 200bhp - point is hdi rods are not failsafe, but will give you more of a chance over standard rods.
You'll need to let me know asap if you want in on this order though
cheers guys and i'll shoot you a pm in a bit zx
