OMG, those pictures are brutal, sorry to hear about your misfortune but at least you'll have a workin box for now thanks to your obviously great sponsors.

Also, i fail to see how this shows the limit of our boxes. Exactly how much boost/whp were you puttin into the box, if an unnamed box is pushin 180whp at 7.5psi with no problems not to mention runin billy's box at 10psi with no problems then whats proven.

$200-$1000 for a used one. justin got his for $199 and i got mine for $550. we are about to stock up on motors here in nova. tango is going to buy a few and leave it in her storage room incase more of us blow up our motors.
