well it all happened when i decided to check what this car had on the road. so i dumped a half tank of race gas in the car and went out for the night. started to fool around with the boost controller and experimented with different boost levels. well thinking that i had a bullet proof engine, i hit 27psi. did this a couple of times and then once or twice i spiked to 30psi. well the car went well. too well to be straight. and then it happened. at idle my oil light came on and off really fast. as soon as that happened i heard a ticking noise at around 3000rpm. well it got worse and worse so i went home. got home checked the oil and the oil looked like it had a brass color. droped thte oil pan took the rod caps off and saw it. bamm. the bearing had spun.

thinking the motor is still under warranty, called the person who did the motor and said it had a 1000mile warranty and that was it. i have 2800miles on the motor. and i am the idiot that told him that. so another word i am fucked.  

so........thats it the car will sit in the garage for a long time now until i get money and time to take the motor out because the crank is shot..

life sucks
