Re: I got dirty Leeed style
 

How the heck do you all blow motors? Maybe my engine has top secret forged rods/pistons that look like stock rods/pistons? I just think it's because I bought my car from a girl and it only had 64k miles... but I do beat it pretty hard, so I dunno...

Re: I got dirty Leeed style
 

youve got the magic tune O0 or some kind of magical z6 with no cast imperfections

Re: I got dirty Leeed style
 

i ran my y7 at 13 psi forever no probs...but the b16 killed four pistons on 14 psi

Re: I got dirty Leeed style
 

time to go assess the damage.




hahahahahahahahhaha

oh my ------- dear lord.

so here's the scoop. nothing will ever ever ever go smoothly for me, its such a ------- fact that its in the ------- encyclopedia.

I go outside to do a compression test. Run the test on the first cylinder, 155psi...Cylinder #1 owned for sure. Here's the fun of what happens next. I start unscrewing the compression tester from the cylinder, and the hose just twists. The compression tester is stuck in cylinder 1, and I cannot get it out.

Just ------- kill me. I'm getting a ------- geo. I never had problems with my metro.

Re: Owned Ringlands, and another problem now, go figure.
 

Fook you had a metro? Bet that got you no lovin. I soo know what you mean fook, i get my accord back together today, after ------ with the turbo and fixing all that ---- wrong, fix my manifold leak, swap oil pans to fix my oil drain leakage issue(S). Anyway, the first time i used an aftermarket oil pan gasket was today and wouldnt you know it, the bitch leaks soo bad i cant even drive it. I didnt have my honda oil pan gasket because it broke when i took it off (i reused it about 3-4x though) im just pissed. Oh yea, on a 20 mile trip, i lost about 3.5 qts of oil... just nasty.

Re: Owned Ringlands, and another problem now, go figure.
 

155 isnt to bad but not great either

Re: Owned Ringlands, and another problem now, go figure.
 

its not that great considering it was 200psi a week ago.

anyways, compression test results are in:

last week 200-200-200-200

this week 155-110-170-190

did SOME damage to all 4!!!! take that shitty casting! O0

well im up to 7 pistons and 3 occassions, thats close.

Re: Owned Ringlands, Compression results are in.
 

What do you think caused the low compression... bad tune?

Re: Owned Ringlands, Compression results are in.
 

too much pressure on the pistons, happens with any tune

eg me

Re: Owned Ringlands, Compression results are in.
 

no the tune was ------- dialed and pretty conservative. I think I may have overdone it on the boost a bit, wastegate was peaking 14psi at spoolup, and bleedin off to 12, but I saw some 13psi action at the top of 4th.

oh well, i think for now im gonna toss in another set of oem pistons and then start building my other block.

Filled Z6, scat or eagle rods, and roller waves...sounds good to me.
