Head Lifted!
So i take it u dont have a BOOST Guage? so who knows how much u were boosting!! and yes stock map sensor stop reading at 11psi but it wont boost cut off at 11 unless ur tuner told it to!! so more then likely u spiked up words around 20 and who knows what happen! gotta pull the head and see whats going on! good luck! my advise, dont install a boost controller unless u have a guage and know what ur setting it at!
you had a tune to 11psi {maybe} beyond that your motor is getting 20+psi on a tune designed for 11.
tear it apart and see what you melted. would be kind of surprising if you didn't melt a piston, fracture a sleeve, or frag rings
Yea i learned my lesson.. I must of installed the MBC wrong. Anyone know how the forge unos mbc goes? My motor blew after i installed this cuz on the way to pick up te forge i was on it a lot and nothing happened. The first pull i did with the mbc n kaboom.. I have the wastegate going to the sideport on the mbc n the bottom going to the turbo. Thats how it was on their website, and the mbc was only turned about 5 clicks.

From the turbo into port number 2, then port number 1 to side port on the wastegate.
Feed line ALWAYS go to the long side port on an MBC, you are pushing a spring and springs need a place to expand/contract (IE, a long tube).
I had it installed right. Maybe 6 clicks was too much for the car... Hopefully i can get the head off tonight after work n inspect everything. If i drain the oil and it has coolant in it that means i cracked the sleeve right?
Its indeed possible, even though highly improbable.
Took off the head tonight and found i cracked the sleeve in cylinder 2. Big crack going all the way down. I still dont understand how i got 0 compression in the other cylinders with no cracks.
Either way, its a wrap. From now on.. NO CLICKs when your rebuild it. I've seen car blow up from 1psi of positive pressure regardless of turbo size. Increased cylinder pressure is increased cylinder pressure
Ok so someone is selling a completely stock b16 block that is coming out of the machine shop soon from a fresh oem rebuild. To pistons, rings, hone, bearing, mirco crank, etc. Should i get another block like this or just go ahead n build one for my turboed car. Im still going to be boosted so im going to boost again on this b16 block if it get it. Was just wondering if its dumb to get a stock b16 block with 0 miles n turbo it right away.
I had the same exact situation that happened to me about to 3 years ago..blew white smoke and everything and coolant everywhere..took the the head off and sure enough I cracked a sleeve.
Oh yea mine happened while it was getting tuned it was set at 16 psi spike to 24 and kabooom!
