I called tech support and they told me to add more grounds. Fired right up

I gotta redo my oil pan drain, get an oil pressure gauge, check if there's missing on cylinders. Then I gotta get the parts to plumb the MAP on the box, and the cold side piping.

After that gotta turn my head to the car.

I may make a video on how I got it fired up on the stand and how I wired the box and what not. The box does not need relays. Just needed good grounds from the coil packs

What exactly happened? Bearing failure? Rod bolt? Valvetrain?

Looks to be rod bolt. I thought it would be ring land or oil starvation.

Reason i'm thinking rod bolt is because at least from the sloppy and other ls carnage videos i've seen when the rod fails the big end stays attached to the crank. Usually when its oil starvations there's discoloration from heat, and usually if it's just detonation from too much boost it's just piston/ring land

This had the big end with 1 bolt still attached and looks like it was pryed open like a can. I'll make a new thread for the new engine

Feel free to correct me if i'm wrong

7,400 rpm rev limit and agressive antilag are the limits to stock rod bolts after some time
