that sucks ....but good thing you have a spare motor..

 

Good thing it's a cheap motor and can be replaced easily.

 

That does suck atleast you have that other motor....what kind of boost controller and or wastegate are you running that it spiked like that........

 

internally wastegated. with a custom boost controller...which pretty much got tossed tonight

looking for a new non-ghetto one for the next setup

 

D16A6?

 

damn that sucks , at least you have a replacement engine

 

thats why i love the D16 you can have 2 replacements where you can only have one extra B-series

 

zc actually.

just need to block that fuel pump hole on the head and its ready to go.

 

damn thats sucks

 

Time to break out the JB WELD

 

bet you it pulled like a bitch though!

i spiked from 10psi - 22psi and BAMN...luckily only my charge pipe blew off.

 

umm those motors are cheap


don;t worry about it

 

got some full shots of the car? those are 01-03 ex rims right? A friend wants to trade those for mine and i wanna ditch the 16's.

again, full car shots?

That must been a funny situation. Pipe blew off. :D

 

OUCH!!

got duct tape

 

dude...how do you use that engine stand..i have one but i have no clue how to mount that engine on the engine stand...and it came with no directions

 

im thinkin of boostin my single cam. its a d16a6. what you guys think ?

 

That's why I love single cams.... you blew it? Oh well, buy another one for $50-$100

 

i'll try and get some car shots, but it just snowed last night
i'll dig out some old shots

that engine stand was a little weird but i only used 3 of the mounting arms.

this motor has (had) 215k on it so it was only a matter of time till it blew.
but it was turbo'd for about 15,000kms of its life

you have to take the tranny off the engine and use the tranny mounting holes with the stand.
