Variable compression connecting rods? Huh?
This is a rather interesting bit of information. Do you suppose Porsche really can pull this off?

That’s pretty cool but at such a high stress point in the engine I feel like it will be hard to maintain high reliability with the added complexity idk though.
I thought of it first
Porsche had stuff like TPMS, ABS, and other things back in the 80’s. I’m sure they’ll figure it out.
Eh, they are germans, they’ll get it
I wonder how the weight of this connecting rod will compare with a standard one.
This is when i thought what else could still be invented… Pretty cool
from what I understand (and that is little) this is revolutionary.
What they could do is do what the RC-F did and use variable valve timing to create an Atkinson cycle.
Then Porsche will be like: Higher compresion rod kicked in yo!
Thats cool! though im guessing higher maintenance
