Blimey. Unlucky buddy.

Makes me think long and hard about an independent remap or ppp...

Hope you get it sorted at minimal cost to yourself.

If you rebuild with OE parts I'm sure it will happen again

for that kinda of power ppg bix built up is gonna be your best option, unless you wanna switch to a 6 speeder, depends how much you wanna spend and how safe you wanna be
