Although, that could cause detonation and break a ring or mayyyyybbeee a piston. But if the piston isn't broken and its just a broken valve stem, I think it was valve train control related.
Piston and sleeve is pretty much done as far as I know. I think the valvetrain is still intact. I highly doubt it was the intercooler bricks but it could be a possibility that they leaked. I did see a shit ton of white smoke come out of my tail pipe. All the coolant drained pretty much instantly as far as I know. Before it blew it was full
