I dont think that it was anything fuel related that made the car go boom... The car was properly tuned for flexfuel and I was running e85 on that day. Fuel pressure has also been consistent through all of my logging and tuning..

tbh, the engine had seen a lot of track time and mountain runs among other things, so the abuse was more than any normal engine gets.

The engine going in now - ill back it off a bit until i get the $$$ to build the engine.... I dont want to think about limits moving forward... I want to hammer and still have reserve in the engine...

This second time around is actually a fun experience, though id rather be rolling down the road instead of under the car on a creeper
