The other day when i was drivin it, i took it up to 7k and thats when i heard a sound like gunshot and i immedeatly knew my engine had blown up. It was a JDM GSR with hondata s300 tuned for type R but rev limiter set at 8200. The week before it blew up i installed a ACT lightened flywheel with ACT clutch and Exedy pressure plate. I was wondering if it blew up because of crank not being balance due to the flywheel being lighter?

Ew, that's odd that it did that at a lower rpm. Was it tuned?

how do you know its gone?? you said you just installed a flywheel i know sometimes when they come loose it can make a very loud noise...is the motor knocking? will it even crank...and it did not blow from you putting the flywheel on so throw that out

I agree, your clutch or flywheel could have taken a crap. Could have been a faulty product.

Are you 100% sure it' your motor?

did you pull any sparkplugs or remove the valve cover or anything to verify the engine is bad?

Yea im pretty sure it blew up cause when it did it blew black smoke out the tailpipe and when i tried to crank it over it backfired

No, it was more than likely somehow related to your tuning.
