Well, today I was able to get the car over to my friends shop to see if we
could figure out why I was useing coolant. We got the head off and it looks like
cylinder two was leaking at the head gasket. I just bought Haps old head that
has a full port and polish and valve job so at the same time I will be doing
a steel head gasket, ARP raceware head stud kit, new piston rings and forged
rods. Well, if thats not enough, I also noticed well inspecting the turbo that
a couple of the fins on the hot side were broken and all of them looked a
little damaged. So now what do I do, rebuild the turbo? This turbo is less than 1
year old and is 2Bennetts thrust bushing turbo. I am supposed to be going to
Mid- Ohio June 12th so I am cutting it close. Anyone have any recomendations on
who to call to have the turbo rebuilt or a better turbo to go with? This
turbo is rated to flow 680 cfm and is a little slow to spool but is hard to beat
from 5000 to 7500rpm. If I go with a new turbo I would like something that
pulls hard in the upper rpms but spools around 3500rpm, any such thing? Thanks for
any help,
