I tried the meth/water injection kit and it helped put a hole in my block.. How long have you been running with yours? What kit did you use?

Thanks
Spyder's application is different that what you were doing Ted. Pretty sure he has a thread on here somewhere and possibly on the other site explaining how he is doing it.

Turned out the culprit was the stupid torque brace from steeda.
So if you are going to run 400+ hp you can't use a torque brace[sm=grinangel.gif] Sorry man...just funnin' with ya. That one was begging to be said.


Seriously though. I am MUCH GLAD it isn't an internal issue. That is great news. Even better news that the lack of fuel didn't cause damage because of a lean condition. Congratulations on finding the culpret.

Well, glad to hear that CK! I am insalling the Steeda torque braces and third link in a couple of days, so sounds like I need to reroute the fuel lines. Thanks for the heads up!

You do NOT need to re-route the fuel lines with the brace. The stock lines will fit underneath just fine. I have -8 and that's why it was pinching. I am re-routing it today but the stock line shouldn't be a problem. But be sure you check the fuel line once you bolt it up just to be sure before you weld it in.

EDIT - Funny, Hawg - yes I saw it coming

That's great news, I have been following this thread closely. I have a turbo going on my car from Powerhouse in just a few days, so the more I read about hurt motors the more I question my decision.
