I spoke to the dealer today. He said it sounded like a big end but they didn't investigate because the owner shipped it back to VIC.

The dealer found the cars modification history with photos on the web. He found it when he was searching for something else and on the same day it was towed to his workshop. Unlucky for the cars owner.

They checked for engine codes and said it was obvious that the boost was higher than it should be and he didn't think it was possible to hide the evidence that the engine was modified even if the owner removes the mods. He didn't say how they detect this.
