my friends FC blew out out 90k. He was runing 18psi, stock seals. And there was no overheating problems, no carbon deposits int he engine. Cant figure out what happen. Any ideas? Basicaly what CAN be the cause?

18psi + pump gas = detonation, therefore = blown motor.



I'm also guessing that someone that puts 18psi through his motor likes revs too- so 90k miles is pretty darn good for that sort of abuse!
