ok...a couple observations....A) that guy needs to learn how to drive his car....it does not look like he knows how to even shift...B) turbo.....never disclosed what happened before it blew....what was he pushing on his stock internals...boost etc.was he racing...did he change the rev limiter in his tune and kaboom..what is his A/F etc........and as someone pointed out in their reply there...that too much boost and the wrong tune will cause this as well....not doubting or questioning the stated inferiority of some of the gt's stock internals...but also am smart enough to know that there are no guarantees in life.....and that this does not mean a blown car = blown engine....

If you would of read the thread that he put with the vid his dad failed to put 93 octane into the car and KABOOM detonation. Dont run your mouth without back ground information.
Oh and I would assume he knows how to drive and isnt a tool like you make him out to be since he did rebuild the motor himself.

Yep, I remember that too. I believe he did plug "that sensor" in after all, and said it ran great after that, of course, until the 87 Octane thing, I think.

Thats just it he never said anything about fixing the tune after he pluged the sensor in. Because i remember him saying he had to keep pulling fule out of the tune.

9psi on a roush? i didn't even think you could raise the boost of the roushcharger,or atleast i could never find anyone making pulleys for it, which i why i went with a saleen.

Seen this happen on a roush pushing 9 lbs of boost.
I wouldnt go anything over 7 on stock internals on these cars. Seen boom waaaaaaay to much, not worth the risk.

It was either 8 or 9, im not positive. I used to work at coconut point ford and i remember seeing it being towed in. I talked to him for like 5 minutes about it. The next day when they lifted out the engine there was a nice size hole in the block, exactly like the one in the vid.

How much would it cost for new internals? I know this is a probably a stupid question, due to the level needed.

So for a s/c which is 6500 plus 2300 for the internals....that plus install you can then start working on Suspension? After that you can crank the hell out of the boost?

Going to need a larger fuel pump, beefyer clutch, a few other minor things but thats about it.

You know he is a member here right?
If you would of read the thread that he put with the vid his dad failed to put 93 octane into the car and KABOOM detonation. Dont run your mouth without back ground information.
