Or the fact that he overrevved the shit out of it? Who knows the reasons. Said this before but you guys act like the block fell apart. It was still being drivin, still went on the dyno, and still was being tracked. Also, 20K on a GT35R? I doubt that.
No one can pinpoint what caused it but he was a Nazi on the tuning and knows what he is doing.
As far as the boost comment, to make big power, you need to go past 1BAR for these small displacement motors. Period. Some engines just handle better to higher boost application such as the 2JZ. Running that motor at 1BAR is an injustice because it's rock solid. The magazines have the public skewed, not everyone is daily driving with VP C16 and boost towards 2BAR. Know your car. If you have the octane, fuel, tune, supporting mods, and your block can handle it, then go for it (Be smart tho).
Also, 30PSI on meth is crazy for at least me. However, we, again, are talking back pressure and not what power it is making. You should make more power with the methanol as well. However, 30PSI when your yanking -10* is a bit dumb IMHO but it depends on what power the car makes.
For me, 17-19PSI = 93 octane; up to 23-24PSI = 100 octane; up to WG line pulled (~33PSI) = VP C16. But put it on the dyno, if you can run 25-30PSI and there is no knock, no timing pull, no TQ drop off, then I guess you're ok?
