This was a fair journey and imo 100% to be the blame for his engine damage..
I havnt got the lap top infront of me to go over the ignition table again but i can tell you the values are lower than the ones youve just given and the boost versus rpm are true that i have given..
cheers danny
If you're saying he has openly admitted to driving home with the vacuum hose OFF the regulator, then even a blind man would see that this would cause the failure as described - UNLESS he could swear on his life that the engine NEVER came on boost the entire journey home (but there is not one journey I have ever made in my car where the engine didn't come on boost

)....
Boost + no rising rate FPR = det damaged engine - no if's, buts or maybes - sorry, but that is unequivocal FACT.
