I see....*runs away* Man, i dunno, take it back to the engine place? or did you build it yourself?

Can you email me a list of all the shit you used, coz im getting a quote tonight from an engine place on what it will cost for a turbo rebuild.

I must have sent forty thoooooousand lists in the last 2 weeks. I guess one more wont hurt.

I put the whole thing together myself, only had machining done, so I have myself to blame.
I just talked to a guy who builds race engines, and he reckons that most tend to leak a bit, and thats its only luck if they dont. He said just monitor it, and it should be ok.
