I didn't intend for people to think I was talking about Fast Intentions, Trips is going to change the title to say Forced induction. I'm sorry to anyone at Fast Intentions for not thinking of that!

I will add the other questions to the list after work.

I read the tittle and knew what you meant right off the bat. No offense taken!

Thanks, Tony

Glad to hear it Tony, Trips sent me a message asking I had a problem with him changing the title and it took me a min before I realized why he was asking.

7psi 429
11psi 546

overboosted to 15.3 psi

My guess is snapped a ringland, maybe bend a valve

Fast as **** though, and smoked the c7 z06.
