added 2 degrees of timing and forgot I had done this 15 days earlier with out logging it.

Took the car out 2 weeks later let her rip and it threw a rod my stupidity thing is car was super low on boost but evo 7 tend to be weaker. Car was built for spirited driving and auto x. Super low on boost on 24 psi but 5 degrees at peak tq and 11 or 12 degrees at redline.

Dont shoot me its my personal car I was messing around with it and got forgetfull.

Do like the idea of a green and a 2.4 but dont want to dump much money into it because i kind of wanted to sell it off.

What fuel? 5* seem a like a lot if peak torque is around 4k-4500. Should be zero, or maybe 1-2* at most if you're feeling froggy.

Don't worry about it buddy. Live and learn I guess.. As long as you get back into the evo it's cool with me!

It was on 91 octane it was 3 degrees before but boost was really low around 22-23 psi.

With my personal Evo I am willing to do some risky stuff lol.

This is a newb question probably, but on topic. Why when you have the motor open would you go H beams when you can spend a little more for the I beams?

It's either Eagle Hbeams (cheap), Carrillo Hbeams, or Oliver Ibeams. No Manley junk.
