I am in the process of a budget rebuild on a 2.4T. I weighed the wrist pins, pistons and rods. I combined the heaviest wrist pin with the lightest piston. Then the lighest wrist pin/piston combo with the heaviest rod. With no machining, I have less than 2 grams between the heaviest and lightest assembly.

in order of heaviest to lightest combo: 3, 6, 5, 2, 1, 4. May not be perfect, but should produce a pretty smooth running engine. That's if I ever have time to finish it!

Good luck!
BK
