Compression would of gone through the roof doing that. Could well of smacked a few valves and debris has exited via the intake mani. Sounds like that could be an engine out jobby there. Best thing to do is get a borescope in there to investigate before any more damage is done.

It's been ko4d for bout 1000miles. It's had stage 3 revo map uploaded by aks. I just had it rolling roadbed today actually and it made 356bhp and 333ft t. The car runs but sounds terrible. Imagine if you disconnected a boost hose and then run it. That's wat it sounds like. So hopefully new manifold and all will be ok

 :popcornsoda:

Sounds Terminal.. To make holes, something Metals gone thought it...that'll be something internal given up.

As its been said, I would use a scope to view inside before going to the expense of an inlet manifold to find out the engines toast. :happy2:

Sounds like you would be better off finding a new engine rather than spending money repairing your old one  :surprised:
