got the head checked the first time said it was fine.....got it checked again this time it was fine again we straight edged the blocka nd it was ok...H&S told me it was due to extreme drive pressure from the stock turbo and due to exhaust temps constantly around 1500

The EGT's are probably causing it.... time to start looking for a better intercooler or something.

popping your head gasket can be oil... i blew mine right in front of #1 oil leaked everywhere... blew another one behind #6 and it leaked anti-freeze and bubbled in rez... just depends where it goes out at..

it all depends on what part blew of the gasket, and how much was taken out

hope it does good now
