Man, it just seems so laggy and peaky. Did you have boost leaks or exhaust leaks? Did shane print you off a boost graph?

No leaks at all. I do have brads old huge fmic on the car. The mbc that I had on there was not working right. Put on one of Shane's then the sensor blew out.

How does a sensor just blow out? Did you not tighten it??

Know Idea why it came out. Everything was tight on the car. I drove it around for almost a week before the tune.


It is the bottom end check it out last night. It takes alot to turn it over with out plugs in it.

It's a shame to see that motor finally give up the ghost from something so stupid. :(

Yep. The Spyder was the 4th car I had it in over the last 8 years. It will be fixed or replaced if I can find a good deal on a short block

Engine looks like it will be a total loss.

Don't know if this happed when we lost all the oil or it was like it for a while. The engine has been in 4 of my cars and has been running for 8 years.

Don't know right now. Going to see if I can find a good short block now to get it back up ASAP. To bad I sold my built bottom end that I never put together for the car last winter.
