Default motor is dead
sux

after a few years of boosting on stock internals with fmax kit
bye bye motor

was hoping it was my gasket that went out, but no such chance


my compression was
1st cyl 150
2nd cyl 150
3rd cyl 50
4th cyl 150


sux so now im just gonna sell the whole car to a shop here in sa (mostlikely)

So exactly what happend to your engine? Wouldn't you save more money rebuilding the engine or fixing the problem instead of selling it?
