What was the WHP: NO DYNO
What wtrq: NO DYNO
How long did it run before it died: 4 Months
Was it ever 100% running right before it died: It seemed strong and fine with slight gremlins
What kit: BP v2 PT 6766
What PSI: 14 PSI
What was the cause if you know: Cyl 1 ringlands broke and dropped rings
What year was the car: 2014 370Z Sport
Tuner: SEb at Specialtyz
Software: Ecutek
Fuel: Flex ( E81 at time of failure )

The tune was complete and I was happy, I did notice that I would have issues starting after driving somewhere and it sitting for 30 minutes or so.. (hydrolock)? I also thought I was smelling E85 in the oil but I could not confirm this. I was doing a roll in Mexico against a gtr and although I won I noticed slight smoke. I pulled off to a gas station and could not find any smoke so I drove home and the next morning I started it and it was smoking profusely. A teardown revealed cyl 1 ringland and rings dropped but no denotation that was obvious on the piston.
