I know street racing

So i was racing a srt4 running 20psi with a polished actuater.
well first run was a 45 drop he won.
2nd run 65 drop i walk he nicely.
3rd go the srt4 was in front of me and a 240 was other side of him they are racing so i see how i can hang with them and i am all up in there *** like riding my brake look over 20 something psi !!! but it was to late BOOOM!

No not the ZC my Eng. is indisputable (well so far)

How the hell did my ZC out last the turbo

i have hit 20 psi on it before pull the eng. apart cuz it blow the head gasket and it was fine

 

wow i dont know much about zc but damn cant belive the turbo went and not the motor congrats kinda i guess lol

 

Go ZCs, wo0t Now I just need to join all these Turbo Ninja's or get a damn bottle of laughing gas . NA sucks when you afford the things that make NA worthwhile.

 

What kills motors is detonation, extreme heat, or raw power. A small bit of the 1st can kill instantly, a fair amount of #2 can kill quickly, and usually takes a lot (relative to other 2) of #3 to kill it. #3 will usually spin bearings, bend rods, break ringlands, or put holes in pistons. The ZC does have higher compression than other d's, but also beefier rods. You either got lucky, or you've already busted a ringland or two.

THe main reason it outlasted it - its an XSPOWER turbo

 

Those pictures are blurry as ****, so I can't tell if your compressor wheel lost some bits. If so, hope your cylinder walls are okay.

Yeah i know it lost a little bit not much tho found most of the in the filter.
but if i missed something i hope my front mount was a good filter for it.

 

Did the nut on the compressor side of the turbo come off?? or did you take that off?

 

As soon as the turbo blow i took off all the charge piping and when i started it back up to get it off the side of the road it flew out on to the road.

After you serperated the housings from the center section, could you see any damage to the shaft? Does it look like the nut just came loose? I'm guessing you over revved the turbo.

 

no the shaft snapped in half

 

compressor surge? you running a bov?

 

yeah i got a bov

 

goddamn man!! poor zc Hope you had fun while it lasted

XSPOWER turbo is your answer. These turbos suck. &lt;--period

The ZC is still running like a champ, and I was boosting the day after. Me and vacum don't get along too good. I like to keep it on the positive pressure side.

 

wow! thats what happens when you over spin the turbo... BIGGER Turbo needed. You beat those srt4's no problem!

 

did u do that on purpose cause u have to be an idiot to run that much power on a zc

Honda Motors = Durable and they will last forever as long as you take care of them. Thats pretty lucky that it was the turbo instead of the engine

wow...

hell no I didn't do it on purpose. the vacum line that goes to the boost controller came disconnected.
