CRAZY STORY FIXED!!!! with pics
I have a 93 civic ex that has a T3/T4 hybrid turbo, Complete MSD, VAFC2, 550cc RC injectors, front mount intercooler, eagle rods and Nippon pistons, new crank, clutch kit. And heres my story.... I was just driving around one day not getting into alot of boost but like 15lbs ( pistons rated 18 to 20 lbs) and all of a sudden my car started to smoke from the breather valve on the valve cover.. so i thought it could be bent valve or bad piston rings so i started to take off the head to look at the valves ( the car didnt run bad though) and the valves turned out to be fine so next thought was rings so i take out the pistons and 2 of them are broken (cylinder 3 @ 4 )and the other 2 cracked (1 @ 2) but no damage to block. So my next move is to get some wiseco pistons to go on my eagle rods.... but any way take a look at the pics they say it all hahaha....
this is my D16Z6 after i pull the head and pistons

I think what might have actully happend is that i maxed out the max boost my pistons can hold they hold 18 to 20 and i hit 20 a few times. but any way leave some post about were to go next or any thing that might help with my build trying to hit 300hp on 20lbs boost. what is a good managment system for my setup?? thanks jared
