    Default I love bad luck

    So yesterday I took my car to Mainstream and got them to make my intercooler pipe. I am on my way home and I get on it a little bit but not to hard. All of a sudden I see smoke so I pull over. It was nothin that Mainstream did, nothin I did, nothin anyone did the hose from the wastegate to the turbo blew off and boosted just a smiggen to much. Well I got my car towed to someones house and we did a compression check and 1,3,4 read fine but 2 had 0 compression. I just got my car back Sunday too.

    If any of yall has a piston that is already on a rod for an ls that ya want to sell let me know.
