Re: inside: minor carnage of my wonderful b18a.
k well I can't find the downpipe right now, so I will describe it.
exhaust housing was on driver's side, so the downpipe came off of the housing, went straight down, and was ovaled to fit between the block and the crossmember. it terminated almost at the bottom of the crossmember.
it had gravel and scrape marks, so I'm guessing I bottomed out on it a couple of times.

At least it was only the ring lands that gave way, and you didn't shoot a rod through the block and ruin the whole block. Plus only a bit of scuffing is nothing a minor hone job won't fix 
. Next time get it "fully" intercooled, and a nice street tune, and at 8psi it should rip.
