[QUOTE=XT43;849543]This happened at the Rallysprint hey?[/QUOTE]

Yeah was at the rally sprint but at that point I was over not being able to drive the car since the new motor went in as I never ran good.. forever chasing the misfire in the upper rev range

[QUOTE=Bram;849544]Why the 12mm oil pump? I think the 12mm oil pump may have contributed to me killing my last engine.[/QUOTE]

Going down this line as my last pump was a 11mm and the guy who rebuilt the heads runs the same in a 2.5 with sillier cams as mine

lasted even shorter than mine!horrible luck mate! i got 17k out of my forged setup before it went poop on the highway. also back on the build. im doing things differently this time and the oil+cooling system will be cranked up to 11 as well. this is its last life before i drive it off a jetty/cliff

sorry for the hijack what went bang ? sounded like its was a tough build up from thread i followed of yours a while ago....

You'll never get a warranty on a performance/modified engine apart from workmanship. I've got you beat too... my engine lasted 9,000km but having said that it was "only" a head gasket and not dokdok. The engine has been stripped completely for peace of mind and the crank and big end bearings all look good. I dare say due to good tuner...
