I heard abnormal sound from SC, so I sent the unit to Magnuson

They found it like the pics and are saying the methanol injection could have washed the grease out of the bearings.

Anyone who had experience like that?

Nope I ran my 2650 for 3 year with Meth but never had that issue. Its still on the car after over 4 year of hard pulls on the dyno and over 100 passes. By the way I worked for Magnuson and I never saw that happen.

Were you spraying before the rotor or after rotor?

Yes and I also sprayed my 2300 when I had that also. I never sprayed just M1, I sprayed 50/50 mix of Meth/Water. We sprayed into the elbow, one 1000 cc nozzle. I did have two nozzles at one time but it was just too much Meth/Water and going very fat on the big end thru the traps.
