And only just sealed TD04 for first time last night and havent gone over 15psi or 3k so it was just unlucky had good fun in it though just got to get other block out n build it up n start over again but that engines fully balanced which I think is a big part of this problem with high revs

I think its shat the other end out the sump too too low to see for sure but sump looks like its had a missile through it

running 30psi but dont really push it much its had a good 12 month of boost tho tbh

Not really pushing it much? I saw you at the camping meet lol.

Unlucky time for stronger components and less boost.

Revs will do 100 times more harm than boost, if you're going to leave anything out it should be the gov mod, dec.

I can't imagine you not giving a car stick CJ, can't imagine why not.... :p

12 months at 30 psi on a standard block im happy but I will be breaking the motor so gov modded pump td04 will also be for sale soon

and at point of detonation 0-3 psi setting off from lights havent boosted it for a good few weeks due to running veg as skint and then boom 148000 miles not bad really for stock engine
