How much boost were you running? Do you have a WBO2?

25* is a lot of timing for FI.

I'd suggest looking into a meth kit as well -- lots of cushion in properly set up meth kit.

The stock spring-showing 7lbs, and yes I have a WBO2 with a meth kit. Allen said it was a very aggressive tune but I thought I could handle it and did with the 5.3 till I tried to install a manual boost controller and it went to 12lbs several times before I got it back down to 7 and that is when the pistons in the 5.3 went.
