It blew up after how many years of being twin charged? If it blew up after a few months...then you have a point JIMINI, but that much HP and being twin charged it lasted a long time...and would still be going strong if it wasn't for the wrong octane.

Tuls...just remember to always carry a can of octane booster just in case!

I think the real point here is that it is difficult and if not done right, it will get messy...it's also a touchy set up...like anything that is pushing the limits. Tuls has said many times that if you really know what you are doing, then it can be pretty reliable...

I didn't mean to seem defensive...sorry if it was taken that way.
