Could use some help, sudden sputtering
what are you mods..the same thing happened to me except it was a Z06, anywho it ended up being my Buschur COP ignition, took that crap off and went to stock, car runs like a champ.
Its not broke, its tipped (burnt)....this happens a lot with high hp n2o kits....car ran lean and burned tip of plug off. If compression and leak down are ok install new plugs, re-tune, and count yourself lucky

you more then likely scrapped up the cylnder wall with the little pieces of porcline from the plug. hopefully when it passed through your engine it didn't do too much damage to your turbine wheel either.
Technically you should tear the engine down, inspect everything including the turbo, hone the cylinders, and replace the rings. But in theory you 'could' drive it for another 100k and not have anyother problems except for less performance.

What did the compression test show?
