I am not sure of the boost details but since it was the rod bearing closest to to the oil pump its also possible his oil pick up was cavitating during hard acceleration and the air bubbles blew out the oil film on that bearing.

pulley, Predator with custom tune, puller/installer for pulley, metco idler pulley, Denso Iridiums, and Steeda CAI ran me right at $1400. i also have the SLP stainless catback with all 4 stock cats installed.

next mod is wheels and tires for the dragstrip. then i will go headers and X-pipe.

BTW this is on an 04 cobra
you are putting down alot less than you should, even 440 is low for those mods, go to Coastal and have them look at your tune, something has got to be off.
