Most interesting part of the posted videos is about the test bench engine failure and the delay it caused. It is mentioned on the 2nd video.

It seems like the piston head that was made by STI was defective or that they didn't properly balance the crank or something to account for the lighter mass, so it was replaced with the stock cast piston. This might be a scenario that would only show itself at the sustained high rpms of their dyno test where a resonating harmonic oscillation led to failure or something.
