Wow, I havent watched this in sometime. its nice to see my progression getting better and better over these past couple of years...so much Im doing worng here.
Yeah that was a vtec controller, this was when I was running a GSR with about 190 whp. that motor went kaboom at this event which led me to build my STL B18B motor.
@bigpunn421 Most people like the pass on the lambo more but good eye, I actually caught the 911 Turbo and the lambo pulled aside becaus ehe knew I was faster. Obviously with the right driver those 2 cars I wouldnt touch.
That sucks. You know listening to the engine, it didn't sound any different from beginning to end. For the rebuild maybe you should install a big low pressure light instead of just a gauge.
@steeljaz Yeah I didnt notice a different sound until it was too late when the power died. I plan to install an actual warning system for sure, this could have been prevented if I checked gauges on the straight away. I have autometter gauges but they are under where the cd player goes so not in line of sight...live and learn!

@rhythmnsmoke
I failed! really though I havent broken it down but Im pretty sure the Oil pump bit the dust. It was either the oil pump or water cavitation.

@rhythmnsmoke
stupid valve retainer shattered sending pieces throughout the motor.

@cdr9er999 Oh man, that sucks. I wish I could have made it down to Sebring myself and ran. Bit of a haul for me though coming from TN.
