Mercedes-AMG Forged Internals & Pistons
Mercedes-AMG Forged Internals & Pistons
Forged pistons and connecting rod kits for the full Mercedes-AMG engine range — M177, M178, M157, M156, and M133 platforms. Every kit is rated from 500HP to 1,500HP+ depending on engine code and supporting modifications, and ships complete with forged 4340 steel H-beam connecting rods, forged aluminium pistons (ceramic-coated crowns, Teflon-coated skirts), rings, wrist pins, and ARP fasteners. One SKU per engine code — no configurator, no add-on charges.
The M177/M178 kits serve the 4.0L twin-turbo V8 found in the C63 W205, E63 W213, GT63 X290, AMG GT, and GLE/GLS63 — the same internal specification used in the world-record YPG C63 W205 (9.97s quarter mile, 828 WHP). The M157 kit covers the 5.5L twin-turbo V8 in the W212 E63, W218 CLS63, and W221 S63 — an engine with enormous factory turbo headroom that benefits from forged bottom-end insurance at 800+ WHP. The M156 kit serves the 6.2L naturally aspirated V8 across the C63 W204, E63, SLS AMG, and CLK63 — essential for any forced-induction conversion. The M133 kit covers the 2.0L turbo four in the A45 and CLA45 for builds exceeding 500 WHP.
Standalone pistons-only kits are available for M177 and M156 builds where factory rods are still serviceable — a cost-effective option for moderate power targets. Thermal coatings are included as standard across all kits. Browse the AMG forged internals range below, or see the full catalogue for BMW and Toyota kits.
