Product Description

The **ACL 5M5563H-.25** Race Series main bearing set is designed for high-performance applications using the Volkswagen / Audi 2.0 L EA888 TSI / TFSI engine (Gen 2 / Gen 3). The +0.25 mm undersize is ideal for engines where the crankshaft has been reground, allowing you to maintain optimal oil clearance and reliability under boost or high-RPM conditions.

Constructed with a durable tri-metal alloy and backed by hardened steel, these bearings offer excellent fatigue strength and shell stability. The 3/4 groove design ensures efficient oil distribution, while increased crush and precise eccentricity maximize bearing retention and oil film consistency. Enlarged ID chamfers allow compatibility with performance crankshafts with larger fillets.

This bearing set is perfect for performance builds, turbocharged EA888 engine rebuilds, or any high-stress application where reliable bottom-end support is critical. Always measure your crank journal and housing diameter before installation to confirm correct fitment and set the appropriate clearance.
