Not really much I want to do other than that. When I get a wideband, the EGT goes by by. I pulled the gauge off the dash tonight when I dropped it at the shop (so it wouldnt draw attention and/or get stolen) and it looked a lot nicer haha. Not to mention it's not even hooked up as it sits now so I don't really need it.

You should consider throwing ARP headstuds in there and a decent headgasket, too, that way you don't lift the head when you get boost happy. Hope it turns out well for you, man.

Yeah it's all on the list. Once the motor comes out and apart, we start to see where the weaknesses are.

Only thing you might want to get from the aftermarket is a head gasket. The head studs are fine. I've never seen a single 3sgte lift the head.

When do you think you'll have it back on the road Dan? This definitely sucks!

Thats crazy. I've raced with the boost spiking well above 18lbs and my motors been fine (Almost perfect compression). Also, the stock computer does run pig rich under boost, so do you think the problem could have been your safc tune?
BTW if you need a hand I'd be happy to help you out. I'm John the super tall kid you met at the marshals meet |

Commetic HGs seem to be popular, but you might want to ask on the OC to see peoples recommendations.

On my own 3s, I normally have to run positive safc corrections to keep my a/f ratio in check on the ct26 with a jdm ecu. His safc wasn't even hooked up and he has a bigger turbo.

I'm just going off of the top of my car knowledge base of DSMs, so I thought it might be worth mentioning. Thanks for the insight, Art.

Dan I hope you can get that thing back together soon pal. But yeah, Dan, when it warms up a bit I think we should redo all of your electronics. SAFC, gauges, etc etc etc. Probably one of the reasons why this happened.
