GTM didnt tune my car..I just got the VB sent me from them...I had matchless performance here in Dallas area tune the car.....GTM has nothing to do with this except for the outstanding VB they created!

I agree, it was a tuning issue. If it would've been tuned right then it would've lasted you a lot longer. especially if you say you only redlined once or twice!
I'm thinkin about going TT and the most important thing im worried about is my tuning. Aslong as you tune it right, do regular maintenance and make sure your oil is on level at all times... your fi engine should last you more than that... but goodluck on your future plans and sorry to hear about ur motor :-/

Would be nice to see the dyno but I don't know if it was the tune perse. As the motor let go while just crusing. (ie.. not pushing it). IMHO only here. I think you might have done some damage before and it just decided to let go now.).
I'd also really suspect the oil level. Oil starvation would fubar a rod/crank bearing and seize it. Does you oil change receipt mention the # of quarts of oil used?

ahhhhhhhhhhhh oh no! you guys scaring me, so procharger did this Im tuned 347.8 at 6400rpm, am i ok? Cause if procharger be claiming engines like this im either going to do a build soon, or just go jwt tt, then do a build, what u guys think? Or just fingers crossed and keep procharger, it runs fine tho, again it was tune by sam@gtm. I am sorry for your lost g35man04, it was partly because of you I went FI, and watching your procharger build, I went procharger too, but i aint gonna blow too tho...let us know what u decide to do
Note: I gun my car everyday, and go past 5000rpm 2-4 times a day, atleast every other day guaranteed. No problems so far.....|fingers crossed|

You will be fine... back in the days ATI used to blow motor coz it wasn't capable of adjusting the timing, same with the Greddy with Emanage. If you have a good ems and a good tune with moderate power running on moderate psi then you are ok.

^ You should be fine man. You had your car tuned at GTM, and you are no where near the 400 whp mark beyond which these engines are known to have problems with the rods. If something goes bad (which it can) it can happen whether you have a procharger, greddy, jwt tt, whatever. As long as you have a good tune, and moderate power, you are as safe as one can be while boosting an engine that wasn't boosted from the factory!
