Application Summary

Volkswagen 2.8L VR6 12V 92-99

Part Type

Engine Piston

• Forged in the USA using 2618 aluminum, yielding high tensile strength needed for high-demand performance applicationsDesigned specifically for each engine and use application to provide optimized performance durabilityProprietary Forged Side Relief (FSR) forging design minimizes friction and power loss with reduced skirt width and saves additional weight with a shorter wrist pinSkirt coating (depending on application) reduces friction and wear on piston skirts and cylinder walls while simultaneously reducing operating noiseAccumulator groove (depending on application) helps reduce pressure from combustion gases, reducing ring fluttering and improving ring seal for consistent powerIncludes high-quality wrist pins, locks, and JE Pro Seal premium piston ringsMade 100% in the USA

Note for Pistons, Rings, Rotors, Rods and engine internals

Unless otherwise specified, some brands supply brake rotors, pistons, strut mounts, rods and rings separately. In some cases, titles may indicate plural, or 'set' - eg the term “ring set” often refers to the rings for a single piston only.

JE Pistons sport compact pistons are specifically engineered for extreme applications, up to and including professional competition. In this environment, the higher compression ratios, highest boost, or heavy nitrous usage necessitate the higher tensile strength 2618 aluminum alloy. Their dome/dish requires no deburring or preparation and features smooth-flowing radii for excellent flame travel. A pin fitting, wire locks, and rings are included.
