Either that or somebody snuck into my garage and dumped thier capuccino into my engine.

I just can't figure out why it would have blown. The Scanmaster and knock gauge have reported everything as being hunky-dory and I've been running full-time on 110 octane with the boost set at 20 psi.

1-Get headgaskets from dealer (steel shim)
2-Intake FelPro MS 96033

   3) unbolt exhaust cutout/cat bypass--discon./take downpipe out of the way
   4) leave intercooler on car
   5) remove Xover pipe
   5) don't disconnect turbo from header--remove as one piece
   6) pray--good luck!

Seeing as how it's taking great efforts to get you up to pace, I'd say it's right about the perfect speed for you.

But, um.....please don't go.....or something. :jerkit;
