Hope some great info comes out of this. How many miles on it? Did it have the "cam phaser rattle"?

I'm especially interested to see how the phasers and timing belt looked.

Not just a bad sensor. We got motor apart and the bearing are no good and crank has hot spots. As soon as pics become available I will be sharing.

Upgraded turbo's downpipes and exhaust cold air intake thermostat and custom tune. Customer stated it was making 600 RWHP.

I think it’s safe to say the engine may not be capable of that many ponies without grenading.

I say no more than 500 at the wheels for a long life.
