Did you ever take it to a road course or drag strip? Or just spirited city driving?

I’ve thought about the CMS drop in set they are offering just to be safe. I want to road course but I’m going much of a chicken with stock internals.

I thought you were under 600 at the rear wheels, I've been away for a while though. What else have you done?

I run the mild Mighty Mouse catch can and never see any crank pressure issues.

I am sorry for your loss.

Likely leaned out on stock fuel system.

Let us know if we can be of any assistance.

Ted.

Didn't read the entire thread. I was going to say cracked ringlands...prolly went lean.

Mine blew the front seal when it broke the rings. Sorry Joe.

Needs a bore of .005 because of scratches

on the same yet, slightly different subject. If someone makes a kit that has what mishimoto does to boosted engines, I'd buy one. since the ports have changed on the intake, I'm sorta lost as to how it would be routed. the the DIY kits seem decent in my opinion, I feel that there should be a vent/catch can type of set up.

Get the cam and drop in pistons upgrade fueling and do e85 just a thought. Maybe meth for added protection to increase octane.

Did you see the catch can I installed? Just needed one fitting and replace (reuse) an OEM fitting to get a better routing.
