    Sorry guys for the delayed update.
    Will be doing a forged rebuild for $6000
    Its the smartest choice both durability and performance wise.
    The car will definitely be tuned this time.
    I must thank you all for the posts.
    Not good timing for the engine to go but on the positive side, it will be well worth the wait.

    I will provide pics (hopefully) and a diagnosis in due course.
    Conditions engine/car wise were perfect and recently serviced.
    I was shifting from 2nd to 3rd at low rpm, no pedal to the metal and received no warning.
    It came as a compete surprise.

    That sucks, when an engine lets go when driving normal would be heart breaking.

    Ironically, most zzb's happen sub 3.5k rpm, and when you're just going slowly

    This is so strange for zzb to occur with just an intake and a intercooler....

    Yes, but no as we've come to learn an intake alone can sometimes be enough for a hpfp to fail, and that can cause a zzb

    I sure other members are quite adequate at looking after themselves without you as a chaperon (mum and dad) probably mum and on that note you get another dislike!
