The piston rings can be a weak point, much like our pathetic 10 bolts. What kind of power are you putting down to break it candlelit? Are you running drag radials and tearing through the gears?

I've heard, keep it under 550 and enjoy the ride for years to come...

it's only throwing down 420, but yes I have drag radials. I don't drive it TOO hard. when at WOT, I usually keep it at or under 5000rpms.
