It sounds like your motor failed from either 2 situations either..
A - bad tuning.. premature ignition
B - your tuning was fine but simply the internals could not handel the power you were producing (due to running a large turbo even at low boost)
7psi of boost is 7psi of boost.. but weather you are makeing 150whp or 300whp.. thats what can break your motor.
Just off topic.. i know D16s standard rods are only good for 200whp. Eg car a could run a T25 on 7psi and make 150whp tuned mildly... and another identical car could run a
Gt35R on 7psi and make 250whp tuned mildly.. and Boom! throw a rod out the block (similar to lukezen)
