IP dude, you have bad luck just like me. Good luck with the rebuild.

 

WOW, sorry to see that man. More information, as you get it, would be much appreciated. Hopefully you'll be back on the road soon.

yikes!! thats scary. how the heck did you hit 20psi? how many miles did you have with the turbonetics kit??

 

Damn man that sucks, bet your glad you didn't pick up my CF hatch now. Hope your able to build that b!tch up fairly quickly, good luck!

 

geez..sorry to hear about that..Hope u'll be alright

 

Wow 20psi what happened?

 

danm man sorry to hear about you car, hope everything work sout.

 

did you get to get some runs on before it happened?

 

I got a 12.9 @ 117, spun first, 2nd and a bit of third, but when i shifted to fourth, it detonated, i let off, and still got a 12.9

then, on the 2nd run, the burnout was different for some reason (vacum line was cracked by then), the blow off was way too long and loud. meaning, I must have peaked boost on 1st when burning out, then right on the end of 2nd the wideband showed 14.5 lol, and 20+ psi and rising, then I panic and as soon as I let off the gas, boom.... cloud of smoke....... pieces hitting track floor.....

Temperature was 39 or 40+ I believe, I noticed this morning when removing the engine that the vacum line from the turbo to wastegate was cracked right open, that caused the 20+ psi.

Guys for now, I'm putting a stock engine in, and this blown one is going to get blasted with goodies... Will post more info when the pain passes...

 

Possible on the Vac line , But wonder whether the line may have blown after the fact.
The pain will soon pass and turn into exileration !!!

Iv been an advocate for yrs as far as using Stainless Steel, teflon inner tube lines on EVERYTHING. Nice to know that a weak link will be eliminated for the life of the engine.

 

Damn bro, so sorry to hear, another boost story gone bad. Ok, built that ***** so go it doesnt happen again.

 

you just did the lights and now this

 

damn bro, very sorry

 

This so FAR, replacing with stock VQ for now....

 

damn... you been busy

 

how long does it take you to pull and replace your engine?

 

fockkkkkk!!!!!!!

 

i wish i could say this isnt the first i have seen, my condolences ! but now the fun part building a bad a** motor!
