So I don't have major issues later on. A built block is essentially what? Forged pistons/internals?

I am at 53k miles. 43k of which have been supercharged or turbocharged. lol. Crossing my fingers it never blows!

I hope everyone never has an issue.

12,000 hard miles on e85 at 425-460whp. Uoa on amsoil dominator 10 w 30 all look good. Gtx28 helps me keep my rpms alot lower than most and I think it's a big help. I shift at 6800 most of the time since my torque peak is around 42-4500. Transmission tires and brakes not so happy. Struts are not happy either. Engines good though!
I think alot of people either making less power or using a more top end happy turbo (gtx3067r) spend more time closer to or past red line than me and should be running better valve springs.

I heard these were due to installation errors...

I have heard lots of things from both customers and AVO. AVO wants to blame it on everything except their manifold design anywhere from reusing the OEM gaskets to using thicker OEM gaskets to improper torquing. The facts are that it doesn't matter what gaskets you use, there is a good chance you will get a leak.

maybe... I did have mine installed at Drift Office. I'm guessing with the shop having AVO in the house, I'd hope most install issues would be non-factors. So we'll see.

Has anyone done a blowby test before FI and after? I'd love to know how an FA20 handles 14psi over 10k or more.

Reaper · 10-21-2014, 07:53 PM

I can do an after tomorrow. I can tell you I have no change to the amount of oil in my catch can and no metal in my uoa.

King Tut · 04-15-2015, 05:54 PM

Anyone we need to add to the list?
