To much Boost !!!!!!!!!

[West Coast Sleds]

Well lost the rod yesterday on the Boosted Nytro. I want to run rods and pistons. What are the best low compression parts to go with. I would like part #'s and who I can get them from. I have been told to go with Corrillo Rods and J & E Pistons ???
What do you guys think???

Did you destroy your engine during the process?

What boost/fuel/AF were you runnin? I run Carillos and JEs up to 20-25 lbs on 110, no problems.

Damage

Dont know yet? I know the piston hit the #1 plug pretty good. Head may be damaged. I will tear down this week. As for a/f I dont really know. I was running about 18lbs on straight 110 with no head shim. A certian company that I bought a certian turbo kit from said this would be no problem.
I have had several problems over the last few weeks with this turbo. I put a new turbo on last week due to "Oil pump update issues" and have been testing and trying to get right. I usually try to run a/f at 12.5 give or take a few. I run the prologger with the "Never lean" feature, but not sure it was working properly....


Anyone want to buy the sled....As-Is ?? (LOL)

Let me guess.. boondocker turbo?

 

[turbo99]

carillo h-beam and je works great.9.5-1
18 lbs on 110 no shim wow how long did the motor last.

Hey Sean, need a Loaner?

I cant believe people buy turbo kits and dont use headshims or low comp pistons.And then expect to push the limits.

Head Shim

I cant believe people buy turbo kits and dont use headshims or low comp pistons.And then expect to push the limits.

I cant belive I was dumb enough to belive them....Expensive lesson.

What are the part #'s Or should I just contact Dustin @ Outlaw Motorsports?

Ya, Boondockers tells Apex guys they can run 19 psi stock compression with good gas. Don't know what they told you on the Nytro. I understand why (don't agree) they want Apex guys to keep stock compression, for throttle response with the header on the bd Apex and head shim you get some good lag. I don't know why they would recommend that on the Nytro though because it's a midmount and the Nytro can take a gt42r and still feel responsive with a head shim lol.

Duh!!

Why? Ignorance must be bliss.

I have ran the Apex on 18ish pounds, but ran 116 at 10,000'. I will be doing the same with the Nytro here shortly, and maybe with a little Nitrous mixed in. With 110 I would not run more than 14-15lbs at 8500'. Someone ****ed up on that advice!

That avitar is classic

 

[BigFish BC]

yes like most guys have said corrillos with je pistons & stock rings that is what outlaw runs the pistons are special cut for the stock rings.oh how much you want for it as is.

 

[RACINSTATION]

Just a quick guide on the nytro I have found:


14 PSI = Max boost on stock injectors

15 PSI = Max boost without head shim or low comp pistons

18 PSI = Max boost on stock rods

10 PSI = Max boost on stock motor without meth or straight race gas

This is not gospel, just a guidline I go by, so don't call me if you broke a rod at 17.99999999 psi.

 

[JSCC]

lol!

 

[snowy1]

the stock rods are not the problem, I ran 22 lbs with a 30 hp. shot last year no problems, the rod most likely failed due to deto, it hammers the bearing out and then the rod fails. what elevation where you running at.

 

[West Coast Sleds]

Elevation

Running on average 8k-10k + 40-50 Temp.
