well we couldn't tell exactly what part let go but it was either a rod or the pin boss.. The car was on a good lap too.
If it was the rod, the weak point of the rod is where the material is poured into the foundry. and the funny thing is we think what killed the engine was the rpm. we had it raised an extra 1000rpm over stock. and Chris is constantly on the revlimiter. That motor is very very stout

How much whp was it doing before giving out at 22.5 and having an RPM limit +1000?
It was probably the rod. I believe that's what it's been for most of them that blew at higher boost/power levels on stock motor.

nope you won't have to relocate the battery. we did that because it opened up the engine bay a little more so inbetween sessions at the track it is a little more accessible. here are pics of the kit on teh G4TV show SCION tC we did

1) i didn't see any info on this, but how is fuel management going to be addressed?
2) i find it hard to believe, but is it true that Toyota is sharing ECU related info??
