Yeah, I noticed your motor sitting there. Unlike you, I didn't have the luxury of waiting for Clutchmasters CNC guy's machine to start working.......so I just got a single disk. A twin is still in the future!
Pics next week boys!

I confirmed with STS the turbo is good to 600 rwhp so we will see what Adam can squeeze out of it. Adam predicted 525ish on pump gas and 600 on 100 octane. We will see.

He said when it blew, it sent pieces all the way through the intake and filled my intercooler with radiator fluid. I drained the fluid a few days after the explosion and only needed to undue one bolt to drain the radiator fluid and the oil. That one bolt was the oil plug. Not good. Not like the hole pushed out on the side of my block was any better.
I'd say castostrophic failure is a good desciption of what happen to the that poor motor.

The difference between the 2.3L and the 3.4L isn't as large as some would like to think. High boost for sure it starts to show (mainly lower IAT's) but my IATs are so low here anyway. I mean, 86-95* on a warm day, 45* some mornings. Even after a full throttle run, I maybe see a 20* increase.
I might run the next size smaller pulley to bring her up to ~14 PSI, but we will see. Plenty fast as is.....hahaha
