Well I've been out of the loop for a wile so I don't even know who KTR is? Do they do SVX swaps? Or what exactly?

And yeah I did blow my motor up with like a 135 shot of NOS launch and still didn't break any manual tranny swaped stuff.

It would be very worthwhile if you could detail which components failed when your motor "blew". The order in which this occurred is important, but of course is hard to determine. This is vital information of real interest to those making modifications to increase output.

Jesse engaged his nitrous too early on launch and destroyed his #3 piston I believe. Shattered the psiton and broke the block also if I remember correctly

You are correct sir. Actually it was 3 and 4 and it cracked the block in both those cylinders.

From all of this I gather that no reciprocating parts failed. At what sort of RPM did things give way? However that said it would appear that your experience unfortunately may not prove anything in this area.

Thanks for the info, Trevor.

well all things considered anyone who knows anything knows that shooting off N20 at anythiung lower than 2500 is risky. He accidentally engaged at 1000rpm with a BIG 165 shot. I believe he blew it right then and there. Anyway, yeah it really isn't proving anything. I will try and push the limits with my satage 3 for ya
