my mates frs done exactly the same
denso plug tip melted and ell into engine destroying valves and piston
everything was checked and just came down to a faulty plug
but yours sounds like its gone lean on all of them, so surely has to be down to bad mapping to cause that, if it was just one you could think injector fail
doubt it would be bad fuel either

I know what your saying I know denso itv22s the tip brakes off but I'm running ford plugs and the tips ain't broken there melted! And yes I checked charge cooler pump water still pumping threw
Sound likes it's too lean at the top end but im no expert.
Time to knock on sitechs door me thinks... and see what they say.

84miles and 40 off them were bringing it home, I have been using it to work this week since Monday but not had chance to go for a blast as my works only couple miles finished early on Friday weather was decent so jumped in the car and headed out to my dads garage which is about 12 miles off country roads and that's where it ended badlysigpic

you are all jumping on the thought that it's bad mapping, when it could be something unrelated like the fuel pump failing or lots of other things!

Exactly what I'm thinking, the reason I went to Sitech was to get a proper map and and so all the fueling etc was checked... I could have just bought a plug n play dream sciencesigpic

mapping and dyno runs can put componants under a lot of stress and its quite common for stuff that wasnt quite right to go wrong on the dyno or a short time after. Isnt necessarily easily detectable either.
Until you know whats wrong its very hard to lay blame IMO.
