The good news is my very first lap time puts me in the top 3 best laps of my class..(i was running on 6 year old tires and an eyeballed alignment lol). So once I actually finish the build Im going for gold. That is if we actually race this year.

So far sounds like either hole in piston or rings, still has good oil psi and runs smooth, just a massive smoke screen out the tail

Exactly what my car did when i broke a piston.

Is that car still N/A or have you added boost?

Bone stock NA. Did you burn a hole? Because this car still runs and revs smooth. I just dropped it off in the garage and started burgers but I guess ill check compression tomorow then just pull the motor. Lol oh well

Negative i totally exploded #3 piston which took out the rest of the bottom end.

Same spy-hunter smoke screen out the tailpipes on the highway at 100+ though...

Couldn't wait so went and tested compression and was 210psi across the board... Poor math skills overfilling oil to add to the Accusump and was way the shit passed the max on the dip stick... So what seal/gasket did I blow to cause a smoke screen?

Sorry for the non pictured hijack

If there's no visible leak then maybe some excess oil got sucked into the PCV system?

I like! Did you paint the billet fuel door or did it come in white? Looks really good.
