The guy was one of the testers for electric wastegates. He reports they were having problems with it. configured it multiple times and it was functioning properly. During the burnout the gate did not open again creating 80psi and the above happeend. he says normally they run 1k-1100hp at 50-60psi. Estimates it made 1400 when the wastegate didn't open.

For those of us who have no interest in watching 52 minutes of drag racing, when is the money-shot?

25 mins in in the long video. I'd suggest just watching the video below instead


11 mins in in this video and then "disassembly" at 24:40

So, the engine block is a metaphor for a person of no particular gender or ethnicity being ravaged by a group of people who we also consider to be of no particular gender or ethnicity.
