that's where the error was. the added heat and pressure from the boost slowly ate the head gasket alive. you'll be lucky if there's no head damage.

what's makin you wanna sell it? have you had alot of problems with with it before? i mean, a head gasket (atleast to me) isn't that big of a deal. i've had to swap about 3 cylinder heads on my car in about 4 months. once due to overheat (fucked thermo), again due to my cam tower bolts being loose (cam wore the journals and screwed my valvetrain), and my new one that's on there now. i haven't driven my car since july, so i know how you feel, if not a little bit worse. i'm just curious as to why you would sell it after only a head gasket, unless there have been other problems.

this would be the 2nd motor i blew...its always little problems, plus i have some debt. i dont want to let the car sit over deployment. i want a new car, with a warranty. plus SI's are steal me's. been broke into twice, blown up twice. I know the headgasket went, which might have caused the head to warp. i wont know what happened until i tear it down. i just want something else. everyone has turbo hondas...
