Thats what we figured. The only thing I can think is something was up with that damn gas station. Thats why I was leaning towards a bad valve. Anything is possible though. We'll find out soon enough.

Your car will love you for it. We had guys running 100+ shots all day on stock VE motors. One thing I can emphasize is TUNE. Thats the key to making it all last. Thanks though. Hopefully it will be fixed soon!

Yeah bro it sucks. I never felt a 2.0 VE that ran like this. It just pulled like an animal and was amped to see what results it would make with a real header, IM, and Kelfords. Good lookin out though bro. Once we tear it down we'll see whats the deal. Thanks again bro!
