CP Piston & Ring Set for 14+ Audi/VW 2.0L TSI (EA888) - Bore (82.5mm) - Compression Ratio (9.5:1)

This kit includes a set of four forged pistons and the necessary rings to rebuild the engine in your 2014 and newer Audi or Volkswagen with the 2.0L TSI (EA888) engine. These pistons are designed with an 82.5mm bore and a 9.5:1 compression ratio, making them a solid choice for builds looking to maintain or slightly adjust stock compression. CP Pistons is well-known for producing robust engine components that can handle increased stress, whether from daily driving or more demanding performance applications.

Forged pistons like these are made from a solid block of aluminum that's heated and hammered into shape, which creates a much stronger and more durable part compared to cast pistons. This process results in a piston that's more resistant to deformation under high temperatures and pressures, which is crucial for the longevity of a performance-oriented engine. The 82.5mm bore size is specific to the EA888 engine, ensuring a proper fit within the cylinder walls. The 9.5:1 compression ratio is a common target for many builds, offering a good balance between power and drivability without requiring extensive modifications to fuel and ignition systems. This set is designed to fit right into your existing engine block, simplifying the rebuild process.

When undertaking an engine rebuild of this caliber, it's important to ensure all supporting components are in good condition. This includes checking the connecting rods for straightness and wear, ensuring the cylinder walls are properly honed to match the new pistons, and using high-quality engine bearings. Always refer to the manufacturer's detailed installation instructions for specific torque specifications and assembly procedures to ensure a successful rebuild.
