JE Pistons VW 2.8LITER VR6 KIT Set of 6 Pistons

Forged from 2618 aluminum, these JE Pistons are built for high-demand performance applications, offering the tensile strength needed for serious engine builds. If you're working on a 1995-1999 Volkswagen Jetta with the 2.8L VR6 engine, this set of six pistons is designed specifically for your application to give you optimized performance and durability. JE Pistons brings over 75 years of experience to the table, engineering, forging, and machining these pistons right here in the USA.

This kit includes a set of six pistons featuring JE's proprietary Forged Side Relief (FSR) design. This design helps minimize friction and power loss by reducing skirt width and saving weight with a shorter wrist pin. Depending on your specific application, you might also find an accumulator groove, which helps reduce pressure from combustion gases, leading to better ring seal and consistent power. Some applications also include a skirt coating to further reduce friction and wear on the piston skirts and cylinder walls, which also helps quiet down engine noise. You'll also get high-quality wrist pins, locks, and JE's Pro Seal premium piston rings, making this a complete package for your engine rebuild.

This piston set is designed for a 3.268-inch bore and features a dome top with a 10.00:1 compression ratio. Please note that this kit is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for proper fitment and assembly procedures.
