Car shut down (need help)
I was accelerating and hitting 15lbs of boost at 7500rpm in 4th gear when the engine just cut out. No bangs, snaps or any sounds out of the ordinary. The car will not turn over.......
Does this sound like a timing belt? What should I be looking for come morning?
Thanks in advance

Sounds like a timing belt. Take the covers off and check. I personally wouldn't try to start my car if it just shut off like that, considering it was the timing belt, cranking it can cause bent valves. sucks huh?

chances are you already bent them out of the way trying to start it last time.
you can take the cover etc off.
or you can take the distributor cap off and see if the rotor spins.
