I will send you a DM to help direct you though.
These don't run head gaskets, and even if someone did some additional strategy to say add Fire rings or something of that nature , those can still be melted under or blown out , as I've seen that too. You certainly have burned a hole through a head or cylinder and you'd be wise to inspect all the rod bearings and big end bores as those are the Achilles heals of these engines and will be pounded out w the detonation that caused the melted cylinder, head, maybe piston(or several) . Hopefully you didn't begin to spin a bearing, which is near worst case scenario.

Ya seems like lots of people do not like electromotive stuff. I didn't choose it. It came with the engine so I ran it. Got whole package dirt cheap. I do not have anything bad to say about the tec3r. It seems to work well. When I first got it running it was dynoed at Mustante. Did 430hp thru wheels @ .9 bar and ran great. As far as tuning on the road. I use the Auto VE. Turn it on after changes then run thru all gears and long pulls. The tec3r automatically adds/subtract fuel in VE table in realtime to keep AFR per desired set targets. No need for anyone else in car. All this is data logged so you can check everything after the run. Really works great but I just didn't do that after changing boost conrtoller map. Combination of doing to many other things and underestimating actual change made is my down fall I think. I added a knock sensor last year but haven't even used it yet. Hard lessons learned..
Thank you for your input.
