Product Details

If you're rebuilding the engine in your 2004 Volkswagen R32, this set of 6 forged pistons from JE Pistons is a solid choice for improved performance and long-term durability. JE Pistons has been making high-performance pistons for over 75 years, and they build these right here in the USA using 2618 aluminum, which gives them the strong tensile strength needed for demanding applications.

This kit is designed specifically for the R32's VR6 24V engine, featuring a flat-top design with a 3.307-inch bore and an 8.5:1 compression ratio. They incorporate JE's proprietary Forged Side Relief (FSR) design, which helps reduce friction and skirt wear while also saving weight. Depending on the specific application, these pistons may also include an accumulator groove to help manage combustion gas pressure for better ring seal, and a skirt coating to further reduce friction, wear, and noise. You'll get everything you need to install them, including high-quality wrist pins, locks, and JE Pro Seal premium piston rings.

Keep in mind that this piston set is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for proper fitment and assembly procedures.
