My #2 looked like this as well. but i had a major spel where i didnt lift alot of minor ones where i was testing my system and its limits. Muffler or not that would have little to no difference in blowing the motor he had subpar fuel and cooling as did i when i got a clogged injector jet on my WI system when racing a mustang, didnt help i missed 3rd but still. **** happens but it takes obscene **** to take out these motors they are not finicky.

I'm not saying it had anything to do with a muffler, but:
87 octane fuel![Doh](https://www.miataturbo.net/images/smilies/doh.gif)
14° base timing - No retarding device![Doh](https://www.miataturbo.net/images/smilies/doh.gif)
203cc injectors![Doh](https://www.miataturbo.net/images/smilies/doh.gif)
stock fuel pump
(3-4) 6psi pulls from 2nd to 4th
The final resulting in a billowing stream of brillant white smoke out the tailpipe and loss of compression in #3.

These pics are from my 8th post ever on this board over a year ago.
This was my first timing driving in boost, I didn't know what I was getting myself into. Had I known now, I wouldn't have been so stupid. I'm sure the thing was pinging like a ************ and I had no clue, and especially couldn't hear over my open DP. ![wink](https://www.miataturbo.net/images/smilies/wink.gif)
