Have you got an official diagnosis? Was it ECU, N/A pump, bad motor? I've read since pg 40 and its not clear.

Also, did you go over the pits to update the Dep Transport for the modification to your car? What was involved?
I won't be giving up, other plans have been made and I should be back on the road by next month

There is no way to determine what exactly made the engine go pop until it is taken apart, and whether it is faulty work or just a fucked halfcut I don't care and I will be continuing to get work done on this car, and I didn't have to go over the pits as the engine was still a 2.0l so I just did a change of engine number form(which I have now misplaced )

I'm not to sure but I'd imagine they wouldn't run on anything higher then 98 from factory.
