What do you mean you don't know what caused that? The pistons lost chunks when you detonated and rubbed them against the cylinder walls before spitting them up into the chambers and munching your pistons.

Just detonation mayne. Get that block sleeved and some uber pistons, your free x-beam rods (hardy har, clever name for x parts, lol) and knife edge the crank for elitism. 1000awhp, go.

I think he wasn't expecting damage on all of the cylinders since he didn't mention all of the pistons chunking. I've heard that bits can visit more than one cylinder before they exit although I'm not sure how that happens.

How does the turbo look?

I have to agree with Mr. Fatty on this one. That seems like a good case of detonation. Just because not everyone of the cylinders is fukked, doesn't necessarily mean it wasn't detonation. A friend of mine pulled apart one of his engines, after it went boom, and one piston had a hole in it, the others looked fine (from the top at least). Were you running a pretty aggressive tune on this beast? That, with crappy gas...prob caused your problem. I know I am just reiterating what others have said, sucks to hear doood!
