Sucks to hear, at least it sounds like you're going to get it fixed quickly.

Re: Someone blew up their car today....
Just in case it isn't clear, this is a good example of why you should just leave your car be before the cruise, and if you're going to do maintenance on it, do it weeks and weeks ahead of time! Hopefully it can be together in time!
***EDIT*** Also, regular boost leak TESTs are your friend. When you do a lot of stuff to get a car ready, it's an easy thing to overlook!

I agree with not doing much to your car before a cruise or dyno day and make sure it's in tip top shape, but in this case, I think it's better that it blew up on the dyno rather than in the middle of some corn field halfway to Duluth.
