Piston rings fried - stillen supercharger

I didn't want to make assumptions but I almost said in my last post that I bet those GTR injectors were seeing high duty cycles. If they were at 99%

I didn't want to make assumptions but I almost said in my last post that I bet those GTR injectors were seeing high duty cycles. If they were at 99% then that is 100% guaranteed what went wrong. So we cant blame the kit on this one at ALL. You should never go over 80% dc on injectors. Even if you had the Fast Intentions kit and paid 20K for it and every supporting mod and had them professionally install it, it would have blown. You ran out of fuel bro.

Now, if Sasha (BP) is really going to start mass producing an a2a setup for the stillen kit you can go that route. However, the most the v3 sc will put down on our cars is around 550whp. So even going that route you will not put a built longblock to use. The limiting factor is the impellar speed will top out and the bearings will give at anything over 14psi.

I'm not blaming the stillen kit at all- I'm not pointing fingers at anyone besides my tuner.. I don't see how my GTR injectors and MAF sensors were maxing out at the whp I was seeing. We all take risk when boosting so i understand that.

I have followed many of your post and trust your knowledge greatly. If you were in my shoes what would you reccomend me do next to make sure this does not happen again and get the most out of my built block and SC ? Thank you bro
