....did you have a custom tune made to handle the injectors, fuel pump, and added air coming in?


100% this.

It was the tune that came with the program standard tune from deoblo

This is the first time ever doing a turbo was trying to just have it until Monday it was going to go on a dyno to be fine tuned

the fact you drove it on a canned tune with a turbo and different fuel system, is what killed it....either get it custom tuned via mail from first start up, or never ever get into boost....preferably trailer it

Rod out the side? Detonation be likely reason as your tune was not right.

standard diablo tuner IS NOT setup for a turbo setup....

saying "it was for start up" doesnt mean its ready to be driven.

Please stop with the text style typing. Because it's annoying as shit.

Y does not equal why in the English language.

Diablo is junk to start with. 99% of people run SCT. Did you tell diablo what injectors and pumps you were using and that you were putting on a turbo? Anytime you install any form of FI you do not go into boost until the tune is spot on. A start up tune is just that, a tune to let you start it and normally get it on a trailer to get a tune. Did you do any research at all

agreed...the poor spelling and grammar might give insight to why the engine blew

Yes, get a proper base tune so that you can get a proper dyno tune.

The tune is the most important part of modding modern fuel injected cars.
