Well I know why the car slowed down last time at the track. I took the heads off and found this can not see a bad head gasket for the life of me but there was a small amount of moisture in this cly. car did not over heat driving it around and only used a small amount of water no warning of head gasket but put it on boost with the new spring and pushes water out. All the rest of the plugs looked fine and I only run 22 degrees timing but I do run it very rich. So I will have the heads checked for being flat but from what I can tell they are fine.. No I could not tell the engine was missing. No damage to anything thankful of that. guess I am gone to have the injectors flowed and I will have to check the injector driver to make sure it is hitting on that cly. strange to say the least.

I've never saw a spark plug like that except when a piston has hit it a few times

No piston damage and only some very small markings on the head and a small spot of what looked like metal and I ran a razor blade over it and it came off. It looks to have melted away, but I just find it hard to believe with everything looking so good and the gasket looking good. but I real don't have any other answer. Just goes to show that every dog has its day. it must of been mine even the insulator down in the plug is gone all of it must have went out the exhaust and that means it had to pass the turbo also. when I looked at it. it looked fine also but I am gone to take another look or 3 at everything again and again.

Yea, I just don't get it I mean the rest of the plugs look good and I don't see anything wrong. I don't even see a head gasket issue but I know there is one. I have never had this happen in all my years of messing with the F/I but I have seen it. My tune is very safe just not sure what is gone on. LOL nothing money cant fix LOL Fing cars.
