I wouldn't doubt the lean, overly rich had been an issue throughout the tuning process. The computer tried to compensate though i believe, late in the game though, after tear down, the most heavily damaged piston, had completely melted down, its spark plug was no longer three pronged, but nubbed, and it was speckled with aluminum.

I believe, based on my amateur analysis, it detonated, damaging the spark plug, which broke down, creating a hotspot, which settled on the piston, and continued to detonate, creating heat, thus melting through the piston.

As long as you're happy with that.

happy as i can be. my wife didn't kill me over it. My turbo is my current office roommate, staring at me from a corner begging to be reinstalled.

I have gotten a rich misfire, can you expand on that? Is it just too much fuel the spark plug can't ignite? (Honest question).

Sure. There are only certain air:fuel ratios which will support combustion. If you go beyond this, either way, you get a 'misfire'.

Tell that to the people that paid this man. But I guess their money is worthless right?...

it's pretty cowardly to not come here and respond to people that paid for your service and expect to be able to contact you here as they always have.
