Aw, man! Must've been an ad. I don't see any *****! Get Firefox, dude. Add AdBlocker Plus and all your worries will be over.

There is a huge differnce between a moderately supercharged GT, with say 5lbs of boost and 380-400 rwhp, and taking a car that came with like 450 rwhp, and bumping it to 800rwhp...

Pay to play. He pushed the limits and that's what happens sometimes.

JDM has posted about a stock 4.6 3v engine blowing on the dyno at 360whp. It sucks every time it happens but there are really no guarantees when pushing things well past stock ratings.

What sucks is I read about blown built engines just as often as blown stock engines.

Seems like it's always a Kenny Bell on aGT500 when it blows an engine. Erik
