Sounds like a freak thing to me, theres people running 500, 600, 700 and even 800rwhp and I havent heard of engines blowing yet :O
 
Well mine threw a rod at 1286mi. Looked like poor assembly though. When I saw my old motor it looked as though the rod cap just came off and let the rod go. I also heard some uncomfirmed rumors of another local guy who lost his motor very recently...dont know any more than that though. And whats the deal with the boost by-pass mod? What sort of problems can that create?
