    Joined the "zoom zoom boom club"? What happened?

    There is alot of talk around the forums of the "zoom zoom boom club" wether it be a GTX, GTR, BP, or KL swap. The purpose of this post is for everyone in the club to post a detailed discribtion of what swap they had, what they were running, and end the end what actually happened. Running too much boost? Say so. Engine managment wasnt right? Say so. To rich, to lean? you get the point! Hopefully by sheding some light on your darkest hours the rest of us can learn from your mistakes. Like i said, its only worth while with DETAILS!

      Look in my sig.


      Oil starvation due to a clogged oil pickup tube resulted in a spun bearing. It was cool. This was a regular BP.

        I blew a FS with too much boost. Air/fuel was perfect under boost, it was timing who was the culprit.

        On a side note, blowing that engine was one of the most fun things I had done with that car.

              I'll never forget the look on the guy's face in the truck as I blew by him going about 95mph and then proceded to throw up the smoke screen. Cars on the other side of the road were slamming on their brakes. It was great.

                    not sure exactly what happened yet, but judging by the oil all over the pan/tranny/back side of the motor/suspension/frame rails, it ain't good.
