****! Im sorry to hear that! How much boost did you run and on which fuel?

Also did you fix the fuel pump wires before the track day?

I did install a fuel pump relay in with some heavy marine grade wire.

Looks like you got a ring or piston. Only way to know for sure is to pull the motor down and inspect. Time to build the motor. Don't skimp or you will be doing it again. I heard the popping and saw the smoke on your last shift. Oops.
