But our motors don't need timing changes on anything less than 150 with enough fuel for the 10:1 N/A, I've run 125 on mine without any prior timing changes.
I was in the car when it happened.

It had an AEM wideband. car was running fine on boost alone.

We then hooked up a 50 shot to it. (said 32 on the pill)

sprayed it, the car HAULED ASSSSS!!!!!

then when we let off it engine started sounding like a helicopter and bunch of smoke behind us.

When we got back home ran a compression test on it, noting in piston 3. Tore it down the next day and it had melted piston 3.

what caused it? a faulty crank angle sensor, kept changing the timing. One minute tooo advanced next too retarded.

car was running rich the entire time.
