problems
 
in the past month i have blown up 2 motors, the only thing that baffles me is that both times i had the a/c on. would this have caused it? the first one i was passing a car on the way to work, and the second one i was riding in traffic and it kicked a rod out just like the first one. set up is greddy 15g,7psi,dsm 450's,uber chipped p28, starion fmic, greddy type s bov.

Get a new tuner. A/C shouldn't have anything to do with it.

Sure did. And you were lucky as hell to get that much out of it on a basemap.

breaking rods isnt a tuning issue ::) tell me how too much timing or a shitty AFR gets you a broken rod? cracked sleeve, broken ring land, cracked piston, burnt valves, yes, all problems you can have from improper tuning, but a broken rod...no.....
