death of the D15 turbo
over the winter i decided to bump the boost to 15 psi. added the injectors and did all the right tuning. no detonation at all. pulled like a train...for a little while. pulling into the driveway i noticed there was a rough idle and anslight tapping noise. to make a long story short...... four bent connecting rods! guess i'll make that B20Z swap now.
maybe he was thinking of an excuse to do the b20 swap so he decided to blow his motor :
