Man @Patrykd07 really called that shit blizzard coming. That's some Nostradamos type of shit.

I certainly hope APR will be looking at this very seriously to make sure I’m not just the tip of the iceberg.

This is where having a robust logging solution to see what is happening is key. Sorry to hear about your motor CarbonDub.

I'm no expert, but wouldn't it would be really odd for a tune to cause a bent rod while cruising at steady speed, low load? Wouldn't that have to be an issue with fuel or spark? In for updates. Sorry about your car @CarbonDub , shitty situation for sure.

..I'm sorry last one. I have to.

Sorry to hear about your motor dude. I hope this all works out for you in the end, one way or another.

That stinks. What a fucked situation. I hope your shit gets settled quickly and cheaply as possible bro. Damn

 

[SnailPower]

I'm assuming they've sold hundreds of these already. I can't imagine it is widespread or you would of heard more of it by now. May be an isolated issue unfortunately for him or something wasn't done right at the ole shoppo.

damn, DTR blew up a motor with only 45k? safe to assume this was their tune?

Way too early to tell what caused it. Not safe to assume anything.

Sometimes it's not about what happened at the time of failure, but what happened leading up to it. It's possible there was detonation in that specific cylinder previously which either damaged it or weakened it to the point a simple low load drive could make it fail. I'm really sorry about your situation @CarbonDub. I really hope it gets worked out regardless of what happened.

If you are looking for something to do, would you mind taking a look at my log From what I can see it doesn't appear there is a boost leak, but I'm a super novice at reading this. It looks like at full boost specified v. actual are about the same.

I'd recommend sending to APR. Just send it to their support email. They know what the boost curve is supposed to look like.

Damn, shit getting heavy here quickly.

Turbo install is coincidence and the rod/engine was always about to bust anyway?

Who knows. Would be one hell of a coincidence though when the car hasn’t had so much as a hiccup running APR Stage 1 for over a year prior to this. Timing is completely uncanny if it’s not related, but still too soon to say.

LSPI?

 

[Diggs24]

doubtful.
