240 whp 2.0 LS/VTEC. Done.
This is what detonation looks like and how it destroys a brand new fully built engine in less then 30 miles. Apon detonation, the head lifted up off the block, and blew metal into all 4 cylinders.

Boost FTW. Bottom end is GE knfie Edge crank, sleeved, Eagle H beam rods, everything excpect pistons are perfect, can still see the hone.
The reason this happened is becasue this store lied to and sold me 108 ocatane when I need 110 because he hates imports. So yea. Tune was great. Just the ******* who sold me the fuel.

dump the pistons, buy a 895 dollar endyn head and an AFI kit and youll have a turn ket 500hp car, or a buckin bronco rodeo ride, however you want to look at it

i dont thing the 2 octane point difference caused that since the points can vary up and down by a few, something failed in the motor like stated above

Yea, I forgot to state in the orginal post, that we are leaning more towards it dropping a valve, but how would every cylinder have metal shavings in them when all they are all fine? Thats why we are curious about the whole detonation

i dont see the head lifting enough with 240whp to allow metal from one cylinder to get to all 4. Did only one valve head drop?

man with all the engine failures i might have to get back into the engine building business, looks like most of the people that do it now just plain suck.

Sorry for your loss. If you post some actual details of the build we may be able to help you figure out how/why it happened so you don't do it again.
What cams?
What valvetrain?
What compression?
Were v2v and p2v checked?
