:: ECS Tuning:: WPC Treated Rod Bearings | Hold Oil Better

The two largest enemies of any high-performance engine are heat and friction - WPC has found a way to reduce both. WPC treatment is not a coating, it’s a metal improvement process utilizing high-speed micro peening technology giving higher compressive stresses creating a harder more durable finish which also creates oil retention pools which prevent oil starvation.

WPC is a surface treatment that reduces friction and adds strength, two improvements that benefit your engine.

What's better than using Original BMW rod bearings in your next engine build? WPC-treated OEM bearings!

Hello on your website it mentions the following:
"WPC treatment is not a coating, it’s a metal improvement process utilizing high-speed micro peening technology giving higher compressive stresses creating a harder more durable finish which also creates oil retention pools which prevent oil starvation."

Are there any data that can prove that and make me feel a little more secure that is a better solution that the OEM rod bearings?

Thank you in advance.

WPC has tons of data, documentation, explanations etc on their site LINK. Because these are rod bearings, a very important part of the engine, I highly advise reading all you can to become comfortable with the process prior to purchase.
