Why does everyone think this guy is at your beck and call. Chill out and let the busy guy post pics as he gets a chance. Four people don't need to say the same thing calling BS. Make love, not war

 

Lower intake manifold YUM

Upper end of plenum more YUM

I spy a rod poking out of the oil pan i'm guessing cyl5!

Yup Plug no 5 = toasty

for $hits n giggles my turbo "spring" :P from my gsx

still trying to formulate a real post for you skeptics.

 

as i said IT WAS NOT LOCKED.

my kit was having issues from when i decided to order the freaking thing. so i would not be suprised that it got packed with a not yet programmed emanage.

but anyway i freaking give up on this issue. can a mod delete this thread i tried already. i'm done with it.

 

yum looks like beef stew!!! heee heee

Seriously why did you run the A/F ratios so dangerously lean???

 

i've never had an issue running lean on my 99 gsx but then again i did blow the stock motor too..

i sure like the power it makes before it blows up.

anyways i'll just upload the dyno chart with the wb02 reading so you all can make your own conclusions.

i'm done for the night.

 

"i never even had the password lock to begin with."


I interpreted this as "you didnt have the password"...if so....my bad. Nobody has the password.

 

Ok GQ 626..........who's the babe?

 

Well GQ.........now you can say you know of "ONE" blown Greddy TT................

 

Looks like you drove through a swamp. heh

 

actually thats 2 confirmed and one possible failure.

check thread in engine drivetrain about a member with a massive buildup who had boost spike

then g356gear sold his spare engine to a guy with "tuning problems"

of course not the entire 350z community posts here and i know i would not brag about blowing my engine up online. so i would assume its very possible that others have blown as well.

 

The infamous #5 again. I wonder if the Crawford plenum is what helps me so much with my FI setup? I'm sure it plays some type of roll.

Wonder what he had for exhaust or if it was stock (headers, catback or choked up?)

Thanks for the pics.

 

i had stock cats with custom 2.5" xpipe tru duals all the way back.

i may pull out the tig and spend the money to create a sheetmetal intake similar to the one i have for my gsx.


forgot this one last night

 

ouch thats nasty

 

It doesn't look terminal to me A ring job and she will be good as new

 

Which oilpan is that??? The factory one is black and has no ridges in the bottom like the one in the photo does. Maybe off a GSX??

Do the factory rods have bronze bushings??

 

Ok nick you blew up the motor but now exactly what went wrong im assuming u r a competent tuner and being so you should know at 13's A/f ratio @ 6psi on a 10.3/1 compression motor would spell diaster right????

As soon as your AF got over 12 at the higher revs you should have shut it down?

You mention that your e-manage was all sxrewed up why even chance running the motor at all untill you corrected this situation??

You mentioned you had some kind of timing retard in place how many degress back were you running through out the rev points??

Were you running the greddy injectors?? Were they spliced in correctly?? Any thoughts on how this happened??

This is the first FI VQ motor that i heard of that blew up in the hands of a tuner on a dyno! what happened???

 

Goes and sits in the corner biting his tongue

You can get a small block for like 3k.

 

i thought yours blew up right after you left, following the 40+ dyno pulls he had made.

 

I forgot, I don't recall I don't wanna talk about it etc etc.

heh
