So.... I blew my motor

Well it has been decided today that my motor is blown. For the past week my car has been pushing oil up and past the oil cap. Today I brought it to the dealership and the shop foreman came out and took a look. I cranked my car and when the oil cap was removed it was pushing air out VERY hard. We disconnected my injectors and started cranking it and you can hear a strange noise. The foreman says I have a cracked piston. The crazy thing about it is I haven't raced anyone in probably six months and out the middle of nowhere this happens. I'm bringing it to the shop Wednesday when I will hopefully find out the extent of the damage. I just replaced the clutch a few months ago so I'm tossing around the idea of building my car for nitrous.

I've been running that tune for almost 2 years. When I had my scan gauge hooked up all my reading were fine and I wasn't getting any knock like many associate with intense.

2.85" + 42# injectors + intense tune = your problem

blown engine = the solution!
