    Ouch, not nice. Pistons are 81mm? Only the block has an damage? Pistons are ok?

    Btw. i saw this often. Problem is the ring end gap Pistons out of box and installed. Problem then -> piston rings get an lot of temperature. To much heat, then the wall cracks after some thousands of kilometers .

    So was the car driven; felt a bit 'wobbly' on boost and mis-firy. So it became time to sell? Beau bought it? then it breaks in 3 miles? Did Beau take it back?

    Mate I'm so sorry I would be really gutted and a bit angry to. Surly any one building a car of high power would have had every thing forged. I don't care how good a map you have

    Glad this made you smile, I see the funny side of it myself. I actually work for a fiat dealership not a ' fist dealership '

    Hi guys i recently bought a GT1 i im new to the site, not too sure how to start a new thread but i would just like to ask if anyones had any injector light problems and the car running rich while its on?

    i believe it may be the MAF sensor clocked up messing up the air/fuel?

    any replies would be mint!

    Injector light coming on in 4th/5th gear is normal if after boosting.
