Catastrophic failure? Yep! I had 43lbs boost accidentally go in and blew my head gasket. Right now the power level is 350hp measured, when it did 43psi it would have been about 415hp at the wheels lol
Just amazing you can push that much boost through this engine and not have it grenade. Definitely proves that with a moderate amount of boost generating 200-250hp it should be reliable. I've said it before but the 3A92 in the Mirage is really a awesome little motor.
