broke every apex seal
so quick history bought the engine used but with a fresh rebuild. I hoped it would last a summer on low boost while i assemble another that was getting machined for over-sized bolts as well as some porting.
setup was as follows
stock s4 turbo block no porting
ffe trigger kit
ms3x
aem smart coils
id 2000 and 1000 injectors
borg warner s360 .88 ar
aem water injection on at 5 psi and 100 at just over 10
tune was setup as per aaron cakes tune which worked for me previously.
that motor leaned out and broke the dowel area under the oil filter. many parts changed after that motor blew before putting in this one.
so my question is could this have been a bad build, bad seals, band tune.
the tune was very rich in and around boost under 11,s at all times and was tuning just under 6 psi.
Would you beleive the car still ran fairly well considering all the damage anything over 3,000rpm you couldnt even tell there was a problem. only under 3,000rpm then the car shook a bit and the rpm was very jumpy.
does this look funny to anyone my fuel pressure is rising rate(green line) but at 7.5psi (boost is red line) my fuel pressure falls out. i have a aeromotive 340lph intank.
