A few questions about Ebay engine kits

[anderzson]

Hey
Im quite new to this forum so dont actually know all the functions :3d_frown:
´But got a few questions i need answer at.
Me and 2 more in sweden bought engine kits from mizuno on ebay.
And we got 3 different status, i am rebuilding the whole car so got a little bit more to do, so still got a engine splitted in parts.
But when the kits arrived i could see that min wasnt dark grey on piston top ( non coated ) but the other 2 was.
One of them have driven about 400 miles and have to rebuiild again since a venom injector ended working so a piston melted.
But my question is, have anyone of u got pistons like mine when u bought the kits?
And how is the engines goin after a couple of miles?
And the oil pump have i checked all clearénce at and it looked good, u can actually see a toyota brand on the side hehe
Hoping for ansewers

Edit : can add my setup also, garret t04b, afpr, wallbro 255, another intercooler, ported head , 2mm mhg and 3 " exhaust, im surely forgot something its a little bit late here hehe my plans are about 350 hp on 1.0 bar

please be more specific, what kit are you talking about?

Umm if an injector failed... thats the reason why it blew...

He knows that, what he wants is a review of the engine gasket kit after a few miles.

If you post a link to ebay of the same kit, people on here would most likely be able to help you better.

Im goin to use the pistons , piston rings and gasket set and oil pump from this kit.
But observe i dont got the grey coat on top.

And like i wrote before, my goal is 350 hp @ 1.0 bar overboost.
Sry for bad mix of swedish and english hehe

Thanks so long
