Why does it say 380 rwhp @5500 rpms & 329 torque on your sig?

Sorry to hear it man. I know how it feels for I blew my motor too last yr in my vortech AT g35. I was pushing over 400hp tho and had redline mine when it blew. How much timing did they add to your tune bc there must have been a reason why u're tune was only up to 5500 and not to redline. U're best bet is to do a tear down and see how the pistons looks (detonations, etc) to determine if it was a weak rod or a tunning issue. Hopefully your heads are okay so u don't have to buy a longblock. GL

Sounds like your rod went through the oil pan. I have had this happen with a 97 GS-R. I was running a Turbonetics Kit and the same thing happened....driving home from hanging out with some friends....loud clank followed by a pop and an oil trail about a 1000 feet long....and clouds of smoke. Sorry to hear man. This just makes me change my mind more and more about boosting the G.
