Sorry man, I've been gone a lot this week. So where exactly is it leaking from? And the overheating, did you do anything with the exhaust?

Right underneath the manifold i have a extremely small whole in the block. This is what caused my overheating issues with my first run. I talk to a guy whole rebuilds cars and he is coming tomorrow to plug it with a screw. I am so good at installing/ uninstalling turbos its amazing. Tonite was only the 4th time i took it out after not finding the leak.[>:]

Dude, you have more patience than I do. I's seen enough after once! Did you end up doing it all from the top, or did you take the compressor out?

Oh, btw doose. Im thinking making a new oil return line. One that doesnt have hex bolts on the end and is completly flexible. Maybe you and I should make something up and sell it. If people know how much of PITA they would buy and we would have a nice cash flow. lol
