Yea I was quite shocked at how it didn't leave me on the side of the road spewing smoke and sounding lumpy.
In any event, head is damaged. So...if anyone has a spare 1.8L crank and a BP4W head, please let me know

Have one?
Well, we found out what ate the turbo. Not sure about the detonation cause it still drove and sounded fine. I'll take a look to see if the valve seals were going, maybe some oil was coming in on the intake side of cylinder 4

I believe the VVT feature should already be available if you have the MS3X from Brain. This is what i have ubderstood when have discussed it.
If I recall you had an earlier model NA block which as I unfortunately found out takes a bit of extra work to get the crank trigger system to work. The crank trigger system is a requirement for use with the vvt head. I'm also going the route of the built vvt with efr and I ended up just buying a complete vvt engine with all the wiring and such. Looking forward to your updates.

Yea when installing the bp4w I made the mistake of getting a 36-1 trigger wheel so I was never able to run sequential anything since no code was developed for this wheel and cam input.

Oem 4 tooth with the 99-00 code is fine.
Or you have to grind the double nubs for the cam input so it triggers once per rotation and enter the cam and crank tooth #1 angle in manually.
