new motor for turbo??
Quick option needed help.
Fix the motor Or Change to new motor .
I have a 95,000 mile b18 motor vs 30,000 same new motor. (for Turbo)
$800 fix or $1500 new motor
Would this motor perform exactly the same what ever I pick??? I'm running it on turbo and 7psi of boost max.. Gasket blew on current motor, cost of fix little bit off that why asking for opinion...Would it worth it???
Thanks for any reply guys..

Re: (bigwig)
Would it be ok for you to boost that high???
I boost at 8psi and blow up my gasket and smoke and coolant all over... If i'm going to change the gasket you think I would be ok without blow it up again???
Thank for replies..

when you seperate the head like your talking about,make sure the surface of your head is flat,and invest in some arp head studs.you should not be blowing head gaskets @ 8 psi.
now back to our regular program.
