Are you talking about the Pauter rods that Magnus sells or do they offer another rod of their own design now?
Pauter rods are pretty much the strongest rod I have ever used and I've used a lot. They are the only rod I have seen survive an engine suffer hydrolock so severe that it pushed the wrist pins through a set of Ross pistons.
