Finally Another test Drive and BOOM

[tjh566]

Well, I was turning onto the road towards my house sittin in first gear about 2k rpms, i Gun it and at about 4-5k rpm I hear this awful BOOM. I was like wtf was that, the car was still running but only makin like 2 psi, and runnin really wierd like. Heres the carnage:

LoL, stupid coupling blew out, I thought somethin had broke for sure. Just ordered a stronger one hopefully it'll be here soon

that had to be a crappy coupling if it couldnt hold 7 psi.

yes it was an el cheapo coupling, pretty thin and didnt hold up too well with the heat, i noticed it was getting soft after a little run. The one I ordered is 4 ply silicone 500* F temp rating with 25 psi rating. that should hold it. and the full pics including the build up is in my sig.
