R.I.P. f22a turbo.... hello built f22a turbo!

[htswmr6]

so its a sad day engine is done needs a rebuild, blew a piston ring or rings. so i have to rebuild the engine. It was a sad day today, but now i was wondering if someone could help me put together a shopping list of everything i would need to get this rebuild going. i know i need piston rings bearings gaskets rods beer lots of beer and pistons is there anything else that i am missing???

vodka and champaine so you can pick one depending on the sucess of the build

Replace entire F motor with JDM F22B DOHC motor for around $600.-ish.
Slap on turbo components onto new motor.
Get tuned again.
Dominate all.
:cool:

damn man, sorry to hear
how much boost were you pushin when she blew, and how long have you been boosted at such psi????

[htswmr6]

it was only about 5 psi 10 at most nothing great but i had an old motor as well so it was bound to happen but i am just going to go with a complete build and have a much stronger engine no cracks in anything so i am going to get some internals and get it back on the road.

a boosted f22b would be nice but i dont want to rewire everything and try to get a new wiring harness and i am afraid the samething would happen with that as with this i am just going to concentrate on makin this engine stronger.

What exactly is damaged? piston(s)? connecting rod?

[htswmr6]

dunno yet havent pulled it apart, i had my mechanic friend look it over and we know that its at least bearigns and seals i was spitting oil out the breather tube all over the engine bay.

damn thats crazy. ive been running my bone stock f22 on 7-9lbs daily for the past year and nothing has happened to my car. it still runs like a champ. never lets me sit or anything. but i guess thats the results you get after you tune and dyno your car about everyother month......just like to keep my car safe.
