That's pretty good. Boost is a tricky thing. This pic is of a Sprint car engine that went from 7000+ rpms to zero in a split second. The force being generated launched two pistons, their rods, and the crank journal they were attached to, down into the pan, but each piston took out part of the side of the block with it. This was an N/A engine.



And here are the rods, still attached to the crank journal:



Take care,
