could theoretically happen...If the nitrous backfired into the intake, the pressure would pop it like a balloon under such high boost...He probably had a sheet metal intake too, and those things are fairly thin, since i've had one myself...I could see it happening

no kidding, thats what happened to my 240, i wasnt double clutching like i should and blew the welds on the manifold, then i had to rip apart the block and replace the piston rings that were fried. sucked.

the double clutching thing never worked for me...I've heard thousands of pimply faced ************* tell me this, but i don't see why...As they were not driving a 1961 International Scout, why bother double clutching?

For some reason that has a habit of throwing the car off the line when cornering. ![The Jester](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_jest.gif)

That's one thing i miss about the Evo...The handling...I could drive that as hard as i wanted and the car would just laugh at me...
I remember after installing my twin disc clutch, i stallled like 7 times before i even got the car to move...Thing hooked after that though...
