Build the engine up & go from there. I always tell my tuner if sh1t happens sh1t happens. I've known from day dot that once I started tinkering with it that if something happened to it I could live with it & wouldnt blame anyone but myself. It would still hurt both financially & otherwise but that's the risk we run & sometimes it just happens without a logical reason.Good luck with the mrs I know what mine would/will say when it goes pop. (smack) no words needed. lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Des asked his tuner to lean on it, so they did. Atleast he was prepared to take it on the chin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
