Balls. Get the plugs out and EGI fuse and have a listen to the puffs of the engine. Does sound like its popped a tip !

would have def been faster than that!

what is the reason for tip failure?  Ive searched and none seem to fit why my car failed?

all serviced every thing every 2k 10KM fresh engine boost 0.78 bar , had some high temps with coolant but was monitoring? baked on carbon?
starting to annoy me know as if i repair am i gonna be able to enjoy driving it again with the feelin its gonna let go again in 2.5 year? did i blow it by going WOT in 5 gears?

[BlitzBoy]

From what I remember reading from an old thread you only had it mapped up to 0.5 BAR?

You were probably running lean for ages at 0.78 boost, and bit of extra heat, ignition a bit too advanced on the fuel used ,a little boost spike would be enough to det the front rotor, if you were to rebuild it have it mapped at a dyno , makes sure the afrs are in safe zone
