Toyota Or Honda: Who Ya Got?

Could have been the cause of the engine problems. Adding F/I to a N/A engine without strengthening the internals usually results in faster wear and/or damage.

Yeah the PSI is too strong for them engine's their fail rate is worse then a 360, once you slap that S/C on... on top of that... you think about it, they are acting like that S/C is just a simple bolt on... It's not, I think they either forgot to adjust the ECU or that pulley was spinning to darn fast...

I regret buying that car... It's torque is higher then it HP, and you shouldn't have to purchase a daggum LSD for it to drive normal when it's completely stock...

Damn. I don't have any experience with them at all. We only have like 3 of them here and one is modded - the work wasn't done here though, was done in the US before he brought the car here.

Let me ask, when you say a rod started knocking, was it just the bearing knocking, damaging the rod and/or the crank? or did the rod bend as well?
