These are great questions. The best thing is to dive in and remove the head package and inspect the block surface.

#361063 I had the motor ripped apart and fully rebuilt buy a very reputable shop called jdm addiction. The head was sent out for machining but don't think the block was. He said everything was goodThough, I'm losing coolant from the resivoir, I'm hoping maybe it's a rad hose or something leaking down into that spot but doubt it

#361084 It's been like 2 years now... There's not much there going to say, not
Sure what to do, I might just do the headgasket and use an oem one, do the lma's at the same time..

Can you guys give me pointers for boost?? It's a budget build, most parts are eBay and the turbo will be aswell but getting a good tune!
So far I have the piping, eBay bov, wastegate with dump tube, intercooler, Manfold, , marroso oil pan, sandwhich plate with oil return line..


I know I need turbo and turbo feed line,injectors, downpipe, Aem wide bands and fuel gauge
