What is wrong with this picture?
I got the motor apart yesterday and came to find out, I actually bent ALL 6 rods 
And some shattered piston skirts. Just more proof I was on a stock block/rods
Definitely making some power, but I do think I started to bend 1 or 2 prior to the latest setup. Eitherway, I now know why my mph kept staying the same with bigger and bigger turbo's
Hopefully next year I'll see 150mph + traps.
I'm starting the motor build over the next couple weeks. Some updates of what I'm doing
280 HKS cams (currently 264/272)
+1mm oversized valves
headwork
crower rods
arias pistons
SP tensioner
BL crank pulley
SP modded oil pump
and some other goodies.
Enjoy the pictures
