(I don't own this car, I'm just posting pics and explaining until my friend can get on the site and post)
So, this past spring I believe, my friend purchased a goregeous 1g from one of mitsustyle's longstanding members (I am sure most of you will recognize it). The car performed amazing all summer, and saw it's fair share of hard driving. Well the hard driving caught up to it, and this is what resulted.
SO yea thats the damage. You would have to ask the driver the whole story, but from what I heard it hit a mad boost spike and just blew a hole right in the piston. The plans for the future are-
-built lower end
-possible built head (old one may or may not have a bent valve)
-hks 272's
-maybe new turbo? (has a greddy 20g on it now, doesnt seem to have caught any of the metal from the piston, spins freely)
-a new dyno tune, and dyno'd to see what numbers it's putting down.
Once my friend get's back on the site, he will have more to say. I will try to update with pictures when he can't.
