Paxton Blown 302 Stroker

Sorry !!!!!!!!!!

Would like to know what happened.

Terry

From the looks the motor seems to be ok....not for sure though. Both sides of the intercooler piping blew of the intercooler. The drivers side piping got blown out from the bottom of the car and i think I ran it over, or the guy behind me did.

I bent the piping back and order a new one from Paxton....$75.00 for a new inlet pipe, seems pricey but whatever. I manage to fit all the intercooler piping even the damaged one back into the car and started it up. Car fired right up and but is stumbling and falling on its face after awhile. So we are gonna look further into everything and pick back through the motor most likely. Its definitely not all there or running right by no means. So it doesnt look like im in the clear just yet.

On a brighter note, I took the dremel to the front bumper and get it cut out to expose the intercooler and piping more. I must say it looks very nice. I also went ahead and tinted the tailights and lightly tinted the fronts as well. Car is looking better and better, now lets just hope my motor is ok.

Damn dude you scared the shit outta me lol glad it was only the piping not your motor!!

Yeah I think the motor is ok....gonna reset the tune and try it again, I think everything got thrown outta wack a little when this happened and may be the reason why the car is running a little funny right now....

Im still not in the clear though. Not until I check everything out.

As I said in your other thread make sure to check and see that the bypass valves are working correctly.
