haha fixed.

the new head gasket seemed to be getting slightly hit by the piston! (maybe bad gasket) and had blown through in two spots (both to seprate water ways) on no.3 cyclinder.

new much stronger looking head gasket and it runs like a dream atm, hoping the other side dosen't let go as it was the matching gasket out of the same kit as the stuffed one.

i'll wait a bit befor testing how strong it really is ;)

intercooler coming maybe befor weekends up!!! then boost might be put back to 9psi "might"

fix one thing and another goes..

driving all day then hisssssss and front window fogs up a bit, start to panic and then notice some coolant in the passenger foot well. heater core has gone i guess, bypassed it and now driving a slightly cooler car at night.

i am in no rush to do a repair on it! since doing the one on my wagon.
