Audi / VW 2.0L TFSI Pistons

The Audi / VW 2.0L TFSI pistons are engineered for mild to high tuning, ideal for road or club race cars aiming for high mileage and street use. Designed by ZRP engineers and manufactured in Germany from 4032 (T6) high-silicon, low-expansion alloy, these pistons allow for a closer piston to bore clearance, enhancing seal quality. This design minimizes slapping noise during cold starts, common in engines with forged pistons, ensuring quiet operation and low oil consumption.

The pistons feature a full round skirt design with a bottom reinforcing band and oversized, deeper valve pockets to accommodate high lift camshaft profiles. Offset pins contribute to quiet operation, and the wrist pins are crafted from 9310 alloy. Additional features include anti-detonation grooves to protect the first rings, a gas pressure accumulator groove for improved ring seal, and vibration relief. A premium Japanese quality ring package (1.00mm x 1.20mm x 2.80mm) is included.
