Engine update-
These guys seem like clowns.
Stock B head Modular with no intercooler and 17# of boost is just dumb.
IMRCs opened and went dead lean i bet.
And then blaming the motor for their own mistakes just sours it for me.
John Force burnout probably sent IATs to the moon.
Can't wait to see which motor they decide to blow up next.
Pizza did look good tho not gonna lie.
 
What did that poor Teksid ever do to them?
Killed a perfectly good motor
And they should have known better.
RIP
The "late to the track"excuse is meaningless since it was not built correctly from the beginning.
 
If it were a dime a dozen LQ4 from a workvan you know they’d be all remorseful too
Too?
Hard to be remorseful when you basically purposely grenade a perfectly good motor.
Stock Terminator had forged crank and rods and is intercooled and only ran 8# of boost.
Trying to stuff 17# of boost on a non intercooled turbo with a stock Teksid bottom end is just asking for shrapnel.
I find it baffling that they all seemed surprised that it exploded.
Maybe they knew it would, and they did it for clicks, who knows?
