Mihnea and others: When these cracked heads show up, are there any
correlations between the EM type, the turbo, the chip set, etc.? What I
was thinking when I asked the EM question a few days ago was, if you go
to an upgraded turbo and/or a chip set that makes 300+ hp and you DO NOT
upgrade the EM, the probability of burning valves, e.g. 1, 3, and/or 5,
AND/OR cracking the head (e.g. around the exhaust valves or exhaust port
areas) increases dramatically. I would like to do a litter
forensic-type "epidemiology" (sp?) on this data, if it is available.
