Well on my quest for a 10 second pass the engine finally gave out on me. I had a good launch, 1.7 60' and I was doing 100 MPH in 7 seconds in the 1/8th then POOF!!! something let go. I coasted through the traps at 11.3 @ 127 MPH. After getting her home and pulling the plugs, # 5 and 6 were both covered in oil. I busted 2 pistons well here is my excuse to build it up! I was pushing 30 psi and squeezing a 75 shot of juice.
I will document the rebuild like all my other builds and post here so stay tuned for lots of pics! -------------------- 2001 Celica GT-S Turbo
