Wiseco VW VR6 2.8L 10.5:1 83mm Piston Shelf Stock Kit

Wiseco is well-known for making strong internal engine components, especially for performance applications. This piston kit, part number K607M83, is built for serious engine builders working on Volkswagen VR6 2.8L engines, specifically for the 1994-1998 Jetta, but also fits other VW models like the Corrado, Golf, and Passat from similar years. These aren't your average pistons; they are designed for heavy to severe duty performance builds where reliability under stress is critical.

Each piston in this set is forged and machined in the USA from 2618 aluminum, a material chosen for its improved tensile strength, making these pistons well-suited for demanding race applications. You'll find precision ring grooves, an anti-detonation groove, and features designed for better ring seal. The fully machined crown ensures accuracy, and forced pin oiling helps keep the wrist pins lubricated. Wiseco also applies an ArmorGlide skirt coating, which helps reduce friction, resist seizure, and contribute to quieter operation. This kit is intended for builders who need robust internal engine parts that can handle significant stress.

This set includes six pistons, each with an 83mm bore and a 10.5:1 compression ratio, designed for the European 2.8L 12V VR6 engine. 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.
