Damn, that engine bay is clean! I'd rather eat my breakfast off your bay than those filthy plates in my kitchen. With a bay that clean you must be a "details" kinda guy. When it comes to the details most people are like meh! Spic and span is my way.

its just happens bro.. a blown piston ring/land is something that happens with stock pistons for the most part... sometimes it can be brought on by running lean for periods of times..

i have been boosted since Aug 06 and beat the hell of this motor.... many guys who have built KA's hardly face this issue.
