cos otherwise you get a hole and miss a day out racing porsches, ferarris, tvrs, dodge vipers, etc. Not that im bitter..... :D
might be a bit easier to see...brightness is a bit funny
Gutted for you mate. Its not that clear on the picture, but has the pipe just cracked or melted? And which pipe is that?
Adam
Yeah sorry pics are a bit hard to see, looked ok on the camera. I think popped is the best description :), come off the throttle in 5th when I crossed the line and it made a huge almost slurping/popping sound...
Its one from turbos to intercooler, perhaps 1.5 miles of WOT heated it up enough to go pop?
Maybe when you backed off the throttle you had a back fire in the manifold/plenum before the throttle was completely closed and it back up pressure into the turbo pipes?
what mods are you running?

Ah yes may have been it, pfc, downpipe/de-cat/exhaust, induction cones, and water/methanol injection.
hmmm, could the methanol mix have contributed to it maybe, caused the back fire?
boost is a bit more than normal too, about 0.9 bar, think it was creeping over this a bit on the 5th gear section
Sorry for being a dumb ass, but whats WOT? :xconfused
Adam
