Despite the initial unit dieing and the delay(s), FI took care of me with a better unit which is working correctly. Thank you.

New thread with build pics will be coming.

Friend of mine has an S91 and it locked up too. Probably same miles, or less.

Probably, Paul's turbo, which was the one that got starved for oil judging by your location. Poor turbo never had a chance....running a turbo without oil just won't last. I think Jose spoke to Paul about this already.

BTW, I would like to see that car run down the track...sounded like a sick setup.

I don't know about that. If anything it had too much oil. Did they ever get the bearings back like he asked for? A engine failure analysis guy was real interested in seeing the bearings.
