Have seen it a couple times... what makes you not believe it?? When some idiot puts bigger injectors in that are off by 65% without tuning for them, and the oil becomes mostly gas due to it running so rich, it doesn't tend to do the rings much good at all... One guy drained his oil and it was as thin as water and smelled like pure gas. It would just sit there and smoke and burn more oil than gas. The only fix is to clean up the walls and re-ring at that point...

I drove mine a bit untuned with an MS3. Driveability was pretty bad, mainy just double footing it on decel until the car stopped and found idle again.
I did make a few WOT rips, and it felt about as fast as it was before the cam swap...Although it may have been a little quicker.
I can't wait until it's got a tune in it...Should be much more fun.
