Take ALL the plugs out, then unplug both coils and ALL 4 injectors, or unplug the Cam and the Crank sensor (you will get a CEL doing this). Try again and make sure you hold the throttle open with the engine is turning over. Make sure you listen for the compression "thumps" and try to hit the compession stroke the same number of times. I usually do like 8 or 9 per cyl.

My money is on the turbo though.

 

there is black crap in exhaust but its not moist its like a dry black dust kinda crap.. just gets my fingers dirty when i touch it

 

whats CEL? youre scarying me lol

 

this happened to me at the track .. next thing I knew my engine blew...

 

what kind of spark plugs do u guys recommend? oem mitsu or something else concidering me running more boost?

 

yeaaa im trying to avoid all that mess lol

 

Do you have a wideband? it sounds like you are running rich as well as possible mechanical issues. hopefully not.. and what gap size are you running on your plugs now?

 

my buddy did my flash and idk crap about it.. idk the gap sizes i never changed the plugs . they are as they came when i bought the car. doubt they are oem plugs but idk who knows.. how long do they last anyways? i doubt they will last 80k miles

 

what gaps should i be running on plugs when i buy new ones? idk what kind or what gaps. any advise on that?

 

But it was deffinately the plug... the thing popped and the tip melted off and went through the engine and out the exhaust.

 

should i get new plugs and wires? what kind?

 

NGK bpr 8ES? or 7ES? Cant remember for sure, but use the 8's for higher hp applications. looks like your motor is OK, I would bet its the "Flash" your buddy did. running WAY TOO RICH!!! I say if your buddy has done these to evos many times in the past, and knows what he's doing, you should take it back to him and let him look at the maps, OTHERWISE contact Chris at www.mellontuning.com he will fix it!! Or tune it correctly. look at the plugs, if there ok, check the maps first. No need to buy wires yet (OEM wires are best anyway)

 

i was recommended ngk bpr7es with .028 gap.. sounds about right?

 

had the tune since almost 2 years ago.. didnt have the problem thenso why would i have it now?

 

Gap should be under .024? check plugs and gap on the ones you have now, but I would still look at those maps, to make sure there still on there. CEL= Check Engine Light. No biggie.
