Good to hear it's just that simple.

Just a wee bit too much timing on 91 gas. What compression is your motor?

you have to see the way it blew...strange

Got pics?

[jibbijib]

Mega hp was the cause of your problem. Now you need bigger turbos

At that timing,boost and octane it probably laser cut that gasket with detonation. Curious on the pics as well.

ya...need Jibbs for pics...not lazer cut at all...just looks like the fire ring sealing part of the gasket let go

metal fatigued & cracked...never blew right out...with the white smoke of death out the tailpipe like composites

Well done! Luckily it didn't damage anything! Do you got a wideband on that thing yet?

[Slope]

Do you got a wideband on that thing yet?
