Also wanted to ask, what are there benefits of running 17 inch?

Better power down, fitment, tire availibity?

Traction, cooling, cheaper tyres, can get x10 easily, theres many benefits.

Could of went alot faster, had alot of issues throughout the day.

3 track days this month isnt good :P
Motor has been through two cars, and broken many recoreds and done much more laps than you'd think a standard bottem end pushing nearly 300kw could take. Was lacking power, and knew it was on its last legs.

Without tearing it down we wouldnt know yet. My bet would be on cracked sleeves which cause the rods to go. It blew @ low rpms.

[benson]

a/f was spot on and it recorded no knocks

TOO MUCH VTEC YO! LOL

Dunno really without ripping motor out, popped on a outlap @ low rpm, AFR was fine the whole day. Will update when motor comes out.
